How tough are these? I seem to remember a thread about them some time back, but I couldn't find it.

I've never seen one in person, but I figure there's not much doubt that this one is real with the Buck Barker stamp on the back.

Very surprised to win this, especially at this level.

When I was at Beckett; I had an incomplete checklist -- I think the Standard Catalog has more of them listed. The price you paid sounds like an absolute bargain even in that shape.

These are very tough, I have a few of the Baltimore players. I fell a sleep on this auction or you would have paid $200 for it. dan.

Dan,

No, I wouldn't. You would have gotten it for $152.50.

But now I have one for my Washington type set, and I'll leave the rest to you guys.

These are tough to find. A common (Gilpatrick) sold on ebay in March for about $350.
