Judge Dred....Fred

First, thanks for the "two thumbs up" regarding this thread;
you are a "Gentleman and a Scholar".

You corrected me first, so now I reciprocated....No Big Deal.
I guess you assumed that Burkett was in the Old Judge set
and it is certainly a fair assumption (since his rookie year
was 1890).

Jessie Burkett was not a big guy (5:8), but he was a formidable
ballplayer. A three-time 400+ hitter, he (unfortunately for us)
played between major vintage card sets. I am only aware of his
T204 Ramly card. But,he must be depicted on other BB card sets;
however, I have never seen them.
