An appealing, high-contrast example of Baldwin's portrait pose, clearly identifiable despite the tight cut that removed his left border and handling wear all around the card. Baldwin led his leagues in strikeouts for multiple seasons, and his presence here reflects the Old Judge set's attention to standout pitchers of that era.
This example shows creasing and surface marks consistent with the SGC GOOD 2 grade. The image remains strong for display, and its population report shows five graded for this pose, with just one higher! Note this version includes the handwritten four-digit numbers at the upper right, a vivid 1887 example.
