FS: Fantastic N566 Newsboy W.H. "Yale" Murphy #174
 
Super Clean W.H. "Yale" Murphy N566 Newsboy card. Murphy was 24 years old on his way to his only real season in the majors with the New York Giants of 1894 when this cabinet was produced.

One of only (3) street-clothed guys in the Newsboy set and pretty tough to find in any condition. Can't imagine there's a better one out there. Just a very light smudge on the back which is not intrusive and the front is crystal clear except for a slightly discernable wave in the albumen photo at the very bottom center that was obviously part of putting it on the mount.

Typical curve to the mount that, if graded, would flatten nicely. Beautiful piece. $1250 OBO. Paypal FF or check/money order.

Jay's still stinging from Henry selling his book too cheap...........In 9 days I will post a full xray of the photo unless my HMO will allow a full MRI for the cost of my copay.

It's not that I feel bad for myself, but Henry's low prices have forced poor Richard to subsist on dog biscuits and cheap bourbon.

what must he think
 
about Bob King and all those 44.95 books with free shipping :-( I know it gives me indigestion........

I've heard Richard has had to resort to making his own bourbon from his grandpas recipe.....
