Default 1889 Detroit

1889, NL Wolverines have now disbanded but professional baseball remains in Detroit thanks to the International Association. All the Detroit players are merely team change cards that were issued previously by Goodwin & Co. Detroit would take top honors in the IA in 1889. On a side note, the Kid Baldwin card is an error and should have never been issued with Detroit.

The 1889 cards are not as difficult as the 1888 issue but can pose a modest challenge. I still need a couple poses out of 14 possible to be complete.

Just for a change of pace, I'll post something from Old Judges' sister product, Gypsy Quuens. This scorebook from an 1887 tour of California notes on the cover that: "All the League Players Smoke Gypsy Queen Cigarettes". That must have been true; they couldn't print a lie, could they?
