Scott, those are beauties. Do you really need two that have only slight variations?

Ed has always been out of my reach, having only a few tough and expensive cards during his playing career after 1900, and me being a 20th century prewar card collector.

But...his baseball playing brothers probably appreciated him, so here are brothers Jim and Frank in the T206 set. Each of their T206 cards are probably more common than the combined population of Ed Delahanty cards during his playing days.

Brian (the T206 Frank on the right is a scan from a Net54 thread started by our timely Ted -- I don't like to think of him as late -- about the Delahanty brothers)

Amazing 1903, Scott
Is that from the upstate New York find and Connelly auctions?

Amazing Big Ed collection, Jay
Love the cabinets
