Wow epic find! Thanks for sharing. Cool to see such a large collection of these cards that were “lost” to time. Really love seeing all of these old cards

I noticed an N172 Ed Delahanty, along with Billy Sunday and Harry Stovey, as well as an N300 Cap Anson.

What a beautiful collection. Apparently original but likely placed in scrapbook later in life after the cards were well loved. Looks like most of the Old Judge cards were purchased in 1889 ("Fc" style ad - "Cigarette Factory") yet the smoker/original collector must have sampled a couple Gypsy Queens in late 1887.
From the pic, and the cards listed elsewhere in this thread, I'd agree Deacon White may be the best card. Would love to see more pics or list of names. 1889 cards are generally among the more common but there are some true rarities such as the California League cards. Thank you for posting and let us know how these cards might find their way into the hobby.
