This Hall of Fame card shows Dan Brouthers ("Broo-thers") in a casual fielding pose. The card dates to 1889, the start of his tenure with Boston (earlier versions of this pose list his team as Detroit). This moderate contrast card shows enough detail to see his high-contrast uniform, the text on his nameplate, and the stadium outfield backdrop used by that photo studio. As one of the 19th century's top hitters, Brouthers remains highly sought after, making its VG 3 almost incidental to overall hobby interest. The wavy borders show an imprecise cut, with specks of residue on each side. A significant player from a cornerstone series. The SGC population report shows fewer than 10 total graded!
