1902-11 Sporting Life Cabinets

Phenomenal work. I did see that Eddie Cicotte is listed as being distributed, but is it confirmed that he has a W600. I've never even heard of one.

On his list, Jerry has Cicotte designated as "NC" which means that no cabinet is known to exist at this time.

Old Cardboard has quite a few photos of W600s.

Yes, the two 1902 NY NL players were McGraw and Van Haltren.
McGinnity and Mathewson not until January, 1903 - both players cabinets are listed as type 2.

I'm quite sure that this McGraw cabinet is the only 1902 cabinet there is:

Eddie Cicotte, like so many of the player cabinets that were not available until late in the SLC production (1910), is hard to find - if not impossible. As stated in the text - there are 136 player cabinets not known to exist.

Thanks Jerry. Here is my W600 McGraw. It is the same pose as the one you posted, but lists McGraw as manager. I can see that the mount is different, so I assume it is not a 1902.

Your McGraw is a 1903 Type 3 Mount....great piece!

Hi Jerry......really great stuff.

I noticed this in the write up......
" Christopher Mathewson New York NL has both a suit and uniform cabinets with his last name misspelled: Matthewson. "

Here's my Matty....is this correct spelling the more often seen card, or is the "double -T" version more often seen ?

There are a few confirmed which are marked as NC and probably even more that are still waiting to be uncovered, that is probably the only part that should have been omitted as it will constantly change. As they become discovered they will be touted as being unconfirmed and are no rarer than the ones that are one of one, or already known.
