I suspect the Mack will go well north of $5k. I am aware of only two others, and one of them (the fielding pose) does not have very good contrast. Despite that it sold for $13,900 in 2001. The other known one purportedly originated from the Mack family; it sold at auction for around $30K, again about 20 years ago. it is not surprising the card is so rare. Mack was not regarded as a prominent player and there was likely little demand for his cabinet card. Both of the other cards have brown mounts.
