To completely disect this would take considerable space; you would be greatly aided by the Old Judge book "The Photographic Baseball Cards of Goodwin & Company (1886-1890)". In short, this pose was first issued in 1887 and reissued several times. The cabinets (G) could be from either 1888 or 1889 while there are some 1889 N172s (Fc) and even an 1890 example (NL, Fc). This pose is also catalogued as a Gypsy Queen (Es). So there are at least 8 different versions of this same pose. I say "at least" since this may very well be incomplete. Welcome to the Old Judge set !!

Thanks so much Joe, this is exactly what I was looking for. I suspected that it wasn't anything new, but just wanted to confirm.
