High-quality outdoor N172 image of Brooklyn third baseman George Pinkney, catalogued as card #370-5, posing with his bat next to the classic bench stands for watching outdoor sports.
The SGC FR 1.5 grade reflects a scene somewhat murkier than the other Pinkney card offered in this auction, as light washes out some of the background park and grass. It retains good borders and corners, with centering a touch northward. A collector named Frank H. Sawyer added their personal stamp to the back. On one hand, this reduces its grade but also increases interest for those who seek out cards linked to previous owners. The combined population reports show four total graded cards, making this tough to find at all, let alone upgrade to something higher.
This card appears as #370-5's reference image on page 354 of the Old Judge book by Miller, Gonsowski, and Masson. Love of the Game is proud to offer several cards seen in their outstanding work of research and presentation as part of our 100+ N172 listings.
