Thanks Joe for that phrasing, I'm not crazy I just wanted to collect Old Judge cards of every player who played for the 1877 Livingston team that played out of the League Alliance and I got tired of waiting for the other guys to show up so I'm buying Corcoran cards while I wait for cards of Calder,Fell,Wilbur, etc

I have plenty of other 19th century cards I can post with getting insulted by my good friend Joe. Here's one of the nicest looking Player's League card I've ever seen(as Joe could tell you, they are known for their poor photo quality) and somehow I have it.

Interesting story,I've seen the negative for this photo and it shows more to the point you can see he is actually holding a shovel, not a bat and Goodwin labeled this the "Fend off Corcoran crowd" pose. Number 274-7b if you have the OJ checklist at home
