Awesome Schalk!
What's the story behind it?

Thanks Craig. One of three known from the "200 card set" advertised by Mendelsohn in 1917, the others were Matty and WaJo (although I may have info about a 4th). I won it in a Lipset auction ten years or so ago. I went to Lew's house to see it in person, along with lots of other wonderous cards, mostly because I didn't think I would win it and thought that was as close as I would get. I've since seen/held the Matty, but not Walter. The Schalk is now in an SGC 60 holder, and should be in the pop report as well as the SCD book. My favorite card.
