Gotta give it to this seller, he looks to be selling a bunch of fake vintage cards, but, as he says, "YOU ARE BIDDING ON A BASEBALL TRADING CARD GUARANTEED TO DEPICT A STEROID FREE BALL PLAYER."

The card doesn't depict a ball player.

Mack caught for Washington, 1886 thru 1889, for Buffalo in 1890, and then with Pittsburg 1891 thru 1896, with some occasional outfield duty. 724 games. 659 hits. Got hit by a pitch 20 times in 1890 for a league high. .244 lifetime batting average.

Mr. McGillicuddy was a ball player.

But don't you reckon those guys grading cards at PSA would not know that.

I'm aware Mack played baseball, but the card depicts a manager.

A ballplayer is a ballplayer.

Whether in swimming trunks, PJs, a suit, or a base ballist uniform, a ballplayer is a ballplayer.

So the card depicts a ballplayer in what most of us perceive as street clothes, Mr. Mack viewed this as his managing attire.

I now understand why you said what you did, and that you new Connie played, but I still think he's a ballplayer. I recently got Stallings in Cracker Jack (I should say a 1915 Cracker Jack, in case any PSA grader folks are reading this, 'cause they wouldn't know, understand, or care that Stallings is a hi # card and is only in the 1915 set, not in the 144 card set as most of us know). He was a baseball player. And a manager. And is in street clothes. Not many Stallings cards out there.

I used to think that if I managed, I'd do it in a jacket and tie in honor of Mr. Mack. Can't go to the mound or coaches boxes like that, but that's ok.

And I think if Stan Musial shows up at my house one night for supper, dressed in a casual shirt, well.... Mr. Musial is a ballplayer.

Yeah, those perforated edges are difficult to fake, so you know your safe when you see them undamaged.

I had to look.....here's one of his conditions too, from another auction of his....


I ACCEPT PAYPAL OR MONEYORDER ONLY. IF YOU MUST PAY WITH A MONEYORDER THEN YOU MUST PAY $5 CASHING FEE.



that's pretty funny....I can't remember the skit but there's one that charges you no matter what you do after you call this place. Even if you hang up they charge you a "hang up" fee .
