Great work. To amplify slightly on your story regarding Gilligan and Radbourn. It is difficult for us today to fully appreciate how painful and dangerous catching was in 1884, not that it is easy even with modern equipment. When Radbourn agreed to pitch all of Providence's remaining games, the "personal catcher" ethos of the day meant Gilligan would catch them all. It was arguably much more demanding physically for Gilligan, despite being very arduous for Radbourn.

Why didn't you tell me you needed a Detroit Gilligan? I'd have given you mine.
 Ok, I guess if you don't have one, I definitely don't have it. Congratulations on completing a milestone! You share so much about OJs on the board and it makes it that much more enjoyable to collect them.Thanks for sharing!

Great job Joe ! Being a Detroit collector myself, I know how difficult it is to find many of these cards. Please show off a picture of all 21 subjects .
