The alliterative and sing-songy Hugh High is seemingly presented here on a 1917 Boston Store card in fine SGC 6 shape, though the "white socks" pose of this card actually pictures Black Sox participant Claude "Lefty" Williams.  Boston Store was HQ'ed in Chicago and the 200 subject set was printed on a thin stock, making nicer examples such as this hard to find today.  Centering is pushed right and two small paper breaks on the reverse are seen, possibly from a light mounting back in the day.
