Collector-grade example of one of the N172 issue's most iconic cards depicting Hall of Fame catcher Buck Ewing along with the team's mascot Willie Breslin standing on a chair. Graded AUTHENTIC by PSA card #149-11 emanates from an original owner collection offered initially by Love of the Game in April of 2013 as consigned by the family of Ernest Born (who stamped his name on the card reverse as a youngster). Despite the grade we do not believe the card has been trimmed although the image is notably tilted to the left. The cuts however appear natural. The card's greatest flaw however is its significant fading and surface wear. Despite this a very popular and typically very expensive card from the N172 issue. Population Data PSA Population: 7 total graded 2 at this level 5 higher SGC Population: 28 total graded 3 at this level 25 higher* *Please note that SGC does not differentiate between N172 pose variations in their population reports so the number of cards with this pose they have graded is unknown. The figure above represents all the cards of this player they have graded with all poses.
