Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Has anyone else noticed that David Levin's find includes two different Old Judge Radbourne portraits. One has the Old Judge sign overhead, and one does not. And the pictures are slightly different too. Is this a new discovery?

Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>Actually, They are not new, they are well known. One, the one on the left is issued in 1888 and is not as tightly cropped as the one issued in 1887 on the right. I believe the image is the same as was the usual case in these cards. They would just keep changing the print and advertising.<br /><br />If you want to see some different rarities take a look at the Ryan, (396-1x) last card in the last scan on page 22. It is the only one known to exist with the team as Philadelphia, or the Burdick, (52-?0), the last card in the last scan on page three. He was only known to be on Indianapolis, and it is a previously unknown pose.<br /><br />There are many other new discoveries in the group, but the Radbourn is not one of them.<br /><br />Dave
