Any William Hoy Baseball Cards?
 
Are there any William Hoy baseball cards to be had? I can't seem to find anything.

He has five different poses in the N172 Old Judge set according to the book and off the top of my head he has an 1889 ER Williams game card. There might be more, but nothing that I can think of at the moment.

Edit: There is a copy of ER Williams card on eBay at the moment.

Thank you for the help. Much appreciated.

Very nice indeed. It appears to be very rare. I hope I can track down one in good shape, even if it isn't PSA 8.

I think the first deaf player (also successful) should have had more recognition. It is a real shame he was labeled as "dummy" in the league like Taylor was.

Very cool. Now you just need a baseball to go with.

Thanks for the link, Bobby. I wish I had known about him having cards in that set years ago. Not easy to find and pricey in good grade. I will try and keep an eye out for more.

Here is an example of the WG1 game card of Hoy I found on the Old Cardboard website.

Very nice :) I wish the forum had the thumbs up option for card candy. Thanks for sharing.

National Copper Plate, great card of Hoy. Very tough. I think there is also an N173 but I haven’t seen it. Anyone have a Hoy cabinet?
