The first time I saw a Warren CDV of O'Rourke was when it was pictured in a VCBC article, issue #34. The article was about the National Association's 1872 season. I later learned that O'Rourke's Warren CDV was sold in the 1991 Sotheby's Copeland auction, lot 797. It has O'Rourke's name handwritten on the front like the Barnes CDV, and is the same image used in the 1873 Boston team composite - his first year with Boston.

I just checked the Copeland catalog and lot 797 is indeed O'Rourke. Interestingly, the previous lot, 796, is purported to be Ross Barnes but I always believed it was misidentified.

Yes Mark, that's the one. And it's not Barnes.

When did accuracy ever get in the way of a sale to Copeland?

Jay- I've learned never to let the facts get in the way of a good story.
