Clean and sharp N172 Old Judge card of Chicago pitcher Gus Krock graded POOR 10 by SGC due to damage on the card reverse that is likely due to removal from a scrapbook. Said scrapbook damage is as we often say a mixed blessing as its removal has severely reduced the technical grade of the card but the presence of the card in the scrapbook has preserved the eye appeal of the card which boasts a clean well-defined image with square corners and very little surface wear. Catalogued as card #270-2 in The Photographic Baseball Cards Of Goodwin & Company the book by Richard Masson Jay Miller and Joe Gonsowski that we consider the "Bible" of Old Judge-related cards. An exceptional example.
