Default Thoughts on this Old Judge Ward please

Posted By: Scott Sarian

Hi,

I just picked up this OJ John Ward card. It has a nice image, with no creases (aside from the big ding on the left side).

The interesting aspect is that it appears "Brooklyn" was cut out from another OJ card and glued over the NY team name on the card. I am assuming this was done by a fan at the time, as Ward was on Brooklyn from 1890 - 1892.



My question - should I just leave the card alone as is, or is there anything to consider doing regarding the "Brooklyn" glued on to the front? Is this something I should think about trying to remove? I'm not necessarily considering having it graded, but just weighing the options on this one. I've never seen a situation quite like this with a vintage card.

Thanks,
Scott
