Attractive and sharp 1888 card of "Honest Jack" Boyle, who was given his nickname due to his reputation for honesty, in contrast with Giants catcher "Dirty Jack" Doyle. The grade of GOOD+ 2.5 assessed by PSA does not seem particularly honest, as the image is clear and well-centered, with square corners and excellent contrast. Some minor foxing and staining on the reverse is likely responsible for the numerical grade, though the eye appeal of the card is clearly superior.
