Default Definitely Honus???
So I recently won an Ebay auction I am pretty happy about, however, I wanted a little bit of confirmation from here (I struggle with the whole face-recognition thing). Is the player featured here definitely Honus Wagner (as it has been sold as (link below)? To me, it looks good but I just wanted to hear the opinion of some experts. Thanks again! -Frank

Default Pennant
What looks like the same image with some detail added is identified on a Chicago Whales pennant as Joe Tinker. See http://www.robertedwardauctions.com/..._fall/854.html

My first thought as well, but then I realized that just about every player back then (Wagner, Tinker, whoever) was probably twice the bunter today's players are. Ugly or not, these guys got it done.

The first image reminds me of Dolph Lundgren. But, of course, it couldn't possibly be him.

I am now perusing my copy of VCBC issue #12...Aaron Seefelt is offering a cobb w/cobb back...pls call...Our own Barry Sloate has 7 uzits and 1 red hindu donlin batting for sale...the donlin is $250. An article on REA's record setting auction where a crease free Wags sold for $119 and a 14' Balt Int'l Ruth for 27K...as well as the 5 cobb/cobb backs...what an auction!!!!

As well as a great article on 19th c trade cards...overall a great issue...chock full of great stuff...BUT...there is no mention whatsoever of the image gracing the cover.
