Outstanding 1887 portrait image of Mike "$10,000" Kelly, one of the most popular players of the era, among fans then and among collectors today. Graded GOOD 2 by SGC, the card is outstanding, with a well-defined image that reveals visible detail, right down to the laces in Kelly's jersey. The wear is largely restricted to the corners, with some foxing at the edges at both the front and back. A beautiful example of a very desirable pose, one of the most sought-after of the 11 poses afforded to Kelly in the N172 issue.
