Description

1895 N566 Newsboy Cabinets John Ward (Bat At Side) #587 SGC Authentic. John Ward was not your typical athlete. During his 17 year career, Ward played shortstop, pitched and managed for Providence, Brooklyn or New York. Graduating from Columbia Law School in 1885, Ward understood the business of baseball and was a champion of the unpopular concept of player's rights. Ward challenged the players clause which eventually led to the formation of the short-lived Players League in 1890. Offered is his N566 Newsboy Cabinet - #587 Bat at Side. The mount has wear and a horizontal crease that does not affect the photo. The image has a range of values. A eye catching relic that has survived the last 124 years surprisingly well.
