Excited to get this pretty tough type card.
Now I just need Gehrig to complete the set.

Goal obtained! 200 EPDG's
Just over 2 years to get to the goal of 200 unique El Principe de Gales with the purchase of a Mr Schlafly last week.
Was hoping I could get there by the end of this year, lost some hope in April, then won a few big lots to help close the gap. Then finished 6 months ahead of my plan. Thrilled........how much farther can I go? Got any for me? |

Thanks Frank and Jeff....
Amazing that Hack was 31 yrs old in the photo, looked 50 and died at the young age of 48. He was fresh off the incredible 190 RBI season with .356 batting average and 56 HR.. The next seasons he played (4) combined he barely reached those totals. He was allegedly a heavy drinker which took its toll in a severe way. He peaked during the big hitting years of 1929-1932 then withered into obscurity. He didn't make the HOF until 1979. A tragic story overall. It's one of the reasons I collect baseball cards...the history of the game and it's players is fascinating!

A cabinet from the family of Pretzel Getzien, won from recent LOTG auction (thank you Al). In rough condition for sure (trimmed copy on left), but love the collectables with direct connection to the players themselves. The consignor explained that Pretzel Getzien was her great, great grandfather. There is a small "X" at top, left of center, by the portrait of Getzien. The consignor furthermore shared family stories such as “I rempember my Grandma telling me that his wife made all his shirts because he was so muscular he couldn’t fit in store-bought clothes! But he was embarrassed that it made him look cheap, so he wouldn’t let her tell anyone! Evidently she was a wonderful seamstress but must have told!”
Getzien's success mirrored the Detroit Wolverines with his two best seasons in 1886 (30-11) and 1887 (29-13). He led the pitching staff in 1887 and would continue into post-season with a 4-2 record against the St. Louis Browns. The second copy of the cabinet (on right) was obtained years ago and once belonged to Deacon White. I suspect all the players were given copies of this cabinet after winning the Championship in 1887. I was also able to pick up an N300 of Brouthers with decent eye appeal despite the pin hole (again from LOTG).
