Yes, an 1890 Brooklyn Ward would be the cherry on top (and would also revise all our thinking about 1890). I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

If neither of you have a 1890 (PL) I'm guessing one doesn't exist. That said, a man can dream

Another neat detail on pose 5 . . . your 1888 Fb appears to show the 1887 leading zero number in upper right. Pretty uncommon to see this.

Only four of the eight Player's League teams had cards made in 1890 (Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago) before the tobacco trust was formed and the card presses screeched to a halt. Ward was on the Brooklyn team, appropriately called Ward's Wonders, and they didn't make the deadline.
Good catch by Joe on the "0" number Fb. The production crew missed cleaning that negative.
