Candy Cummings is pictured. Moreover, and I'm not sure if this would affect the price at all, this CDV shows a studio background. It appears that this is rarer and most CDVs of this particular team image lack the studio background.

Default first generation

Zach is correct. That is a first generation of the 1875 Hartford BBC CDV w/Candy Cummings. There is that type and the black background type, which I used to own one of, again, as Zach mentioned. Mine was also bought on ebay and later sold in auction. I got it graded and it was graded an SGC80, I believe.

Nice card but the photo on this one was sort of messed up a little. That being the case I was a little surprised it went for that much. I think my real nice one brought around 10k when I sold it, three to four years ago.

My favorite comment:

"GOOD EVENING SIR, MANY PEOPLE WILL ATTEMPT TO TELL YOU MANY THINGS. I AM THE END ON THIS KIND OF MATERIAL, I HAVE BEEN OUTBID SO NOW I'LL FILL YOU IN 1875 HARTFORD DARK BLUES BACK ROW LEFT TO RIGHT...I AM CURRENTLY BUILDING A HOUSE AND RECENTLY BOUGHT A WORLD SERIES RING OR I'D STILL BE IN. I MAY JUMP IN AGAIN IF MY WIFE ISN'T LOOKING. HERE IS THE CATCH ... IN A PROMINENT 19TH CENTURY SALE THIS ITEM LOW END IS PROBABLY $6500 GOOD WITH THE TOP END ???????? 15 TO 20 K MAYBE. ANYWAY GREAT PIECE AND THANKS FOR LISTING SUCH A GREAT ITEM VERY VERY RARE, MATTHEW"

How does one get to be "THE END" in a certain field of knowledge? That sounds like it would be cool.

True....but I'd rather see someone chime in as the "end" on a topic and help a guy out than try to lowball a seller who might be unaware on what he has....
