Default Was this really worth the price?

The photo is not from the 1890s, but the early 1900s. An embossment like that surrounding the the photographic image was rarely if ever used on 19th century baseball cabinets. It was typial in the early 1900s.

A six figure price for early 1900s cabinet card is ordinarily reserved for popular Hall of Famers, like Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson and Joe Jackson.
