Irish-born ambidextrous pitcher Anthony "Count" Mullane jumped from team to team in the early part of his career, always looking for a better contract. In 1886 he settled in with Cincinnati where he would finish his streak of five consecutive 30-win seasons. He finished his career with a 284-220 record then becoming a Chicago police officer. He is a member of the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame.This card pose #331-2 pictures Mullane in mid-windup preparing to deliver a pitch (not really; all Old Judges are posed). Graded VG 3 by SGC, the card boasts strong visual appeal but a slight bit of wear at the corners and edges. The back is clean with no staining or damage.
