Default N28 Allen & Ginters NOT from 1887 ??

No doubt.

If the "Just So" Cy Young card is legit...

then it would be his rookie card.

UNTIL...

someone takes an old image of Cy Young and a real Old Judge card and sends them to the professional restorers to CREATE an 1890 Old Judge rookie card of Cy Young.



I am just VERY skeptical of a lot of these "mystery" collectors who have some fabulous items but don't want them slabbed and authenticated.

It just sounds pretty "hokey" that someone can own a baseball card that is worth $100,000...

which means that it is probably INSURED...

and I don't think insurance companies are real keen on insuring pieces of cardboard for $100,000 without having them AUTHENTICATED.
