Hi all,
I'm relatively new to tobacco cards, and very new to pre-1900 cards. I have the opportunity to buy a large lot of pre-1900 cards, most of which are non-sport and appear not to be worth much (Kinney Bros. riders, soldiers, etc), but the lot does contain two Old Judge baseball cards. The first I was able to track down relatively easily. It's the second that has me puzzled:

As far as I can tell, there are three variations of Daniel Shannon - Louisville, Omaha, and Philadelphia PL. This one is Philadelphia PL. I can't find any on Worthpoint or on ebay, and I can't find images on any sites. I was able to find an image of a Philadelphia PL one on the Met website:

Is there a reason I can't find an image of mine anywhere?
Any education you can give me on the subject would be helpful - like I said I'm very new to all of this.
