While few Hall of Famers in the N172 Old Judge issue could be categorized as "rare" (though there certainly are some) the cards of Connie Mack are more difficult to obtain than those of most Hall of Famers. Three poses of the future Hall of Fame manager are known this one catalogued as #285-3. This example has been graded A by SGC due to rebacking; our opinion is that a slight trim might also have been noted had the aforementioned rebacking not have justified the A grade already. Still a tougher and more desirable Hall of Famer with decent image contrast despite several condition flaws besides the alterations.
