I think it is legit. Nice find, Jeff.
I think there are 5 different cards of Steve Toole in the Old Judge set featuring him with Brooklyn, KC, and Rochester.
Therefore since the N284 cards were also printed circa 1887, it's not unusual that Steve Toole was printed in this set.
For many years, the existence of an N284 Bill McClellan card was a mystery. In recent years, this card was confirmed.
