Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>I don't know if it is the easiest or least expensive, but it may very well be the coolest looking. A decent looking example won't break the bank.<br />JimB<br /><br /><img src="http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/2764/e93covaleskicutvn3.jpg">

Posted By: <b>David R</b><p>Jim, great card, but I think that is too early to be Stanley, who didn't make his Major League debut until 1912. I think that is his older brother, Harry, was also a great pitcher but did not make the Hall of Fame. Harry did have the distinction of beating John McGraw's Giants three times in a five-day stretch in 1908, crippling their pennant chances.

Posted By: <b>Brian Van Horn</b><p>JimB,<br /><br /> The card you have posted is Stan's older brother, Harry "The Giant Killer" Coveleskie who had the name because of his prowess in pitching against the Giants.<br /><br /> Here are examples (not for sale) of Stan Coveleskie:<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1196059794.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1196059840.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1196059871.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>The easiest to find and not usually very costly are the 1920's Exhibit issues of Coveleski. He appears in several Exhibits sets during that time period.
