Rare Old Judges for sale or trade

[z28jd]

Farrar is an ultra rare Player's League card, an 1890 Old Judge and they are tough to find with a decent picture. I also have a lower grade of the same pose/PL from him if this one is out of your price range. That one is an SGC10 with a lighter picture. Only selling/trading one of them though. $2,000 for the SGC40 or $1200 for the other.

Sterling is the only OJ graded of him by either SGC or PSA. The card has a great picture and is downgraded a lot due to the back. Listed as a very scarce card in the OJ book. $1500

John,

Is that Sterling from the Oregon Find? If so, that's a cool piece of provenance.

I can't say for sure since I didn't buy it from GFG but I'll be darn if it doesn't match up pretty well to it and it has the same back problems as the cards I bought from the Oregon Find. That find had just one Sterling it in, he's very rare

[Fred]

That find had that very same Sterling.

When you asked that question I had no idea but I was wondering just how much time you spent looking at that Oregon Find that you made that connection!

I seriously pictured you seeing the card posted by me and knowing right away.

How can you be sure that Farrar is a Players League card. To me, it looks just like the common two 153-6c Farrars that I own. Most Players League cards have a PL on the photo, yes? Also, all PL cards were 1890 (not 1887) as this was the only year of the PL. Maybe Jay can chime in...most PL cards are also one of a kind (or nearly so) as well, you having two is rather hard to swallow. Fairly certain what you have is just two common OJs. (in which case, I might actually be interested in the lower condition one). Just wondering...
