Not the prettiest Ruth, but I’m happy I finally snagged his rookie card.

Super happy to have acquired this card for my west coast type collection.

1888 N338-1 SF Hess California League. About 20 known examples exist so right up there with Hens Teeth.

When Lew Lipset's The Encyclopedia of Baseball Cards Volume 1 - 19th Century Cards was published in 1983, he noted that S. F. Hess California League cards "must rate with Four Base Hits as the rarest of the 19th century photographic cards."

At that time only sixteen cards in the set were known to exist, including eleven different in the Burdick Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Four new additions to the set have been discovered since.

This is one of them.

Good ol' Buck Barker didn't do his famous stats scribble on many T206s, so it's fun to find one once in awhile ..................

up63.jpg

Base Ball Reference shows no indication he played for KC; other teams/seasons correct. Also like how Fritz' middle name was completed later in the red ink ........


Oh, and Fritz did have Major League experience -- He pitched 3 innings for the Athletics in 1907 .......

Fun, fun, Scott

well that didnt post as expected - thought it would post under the Fritz card several posts above here - delete if necessary (didnt see an option that i could delete myself)

dont know how much interest there is, but a quick newspaper search shows that a player named Fritz did play for Kansas City in 1912. The Kansas City Star March 7 1912 states 'Fritz, the Southern League southpaw...' The Kansas City Star March 29 1912 has a spring training boxscore between Waco and Kansas City with Fritz pitching. A really interesting article from The Kansas City Star April 17 1912 about 'roomies' names mentioned are Fritz, Andy Oyler, Johnny Corridon and Nick Maddox (per baseball reference Maddox was with KC in 1912, Corridon and Oyler were not) records printed in The Kansas City Star August 21 1912 has Fritz with 1G, 0W, 1L, 4R, 3H 2.2IP no longer with the team
