(LOT 5)
Group of 1887 N127 Old Judge Cards Spotted Tie Series 15/16 all SGC Graded "ULTRA RARE"

MASSIVE VALUE!!! Rarely offered and the highlight of any Old Judge collection is the Spotted Ties subset. Representing the 1886 New York Metropolitans of the American Association, the cards were among the first N172's issued in 1886. These cards are rarely seen, let alone in an assembly like this in this condition. This subset is near complete with 15/16 included here from the famed polka dot script series.

The grades are as follows: Stephen Brady (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Joe Crotty (SGC 60 EX 5), Ed Cushman (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Jim Donohue (SGC 50 VG/EX 4), Tom Forster (SGC 40 VG 3), Elmer Foster (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Frank Hankinson (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Bill Holbert (SGC 80 VG/EX 6), Jack Lynch (SGC A), Al Mays (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Tom McLaughlin (SGC 60 EX 5), Jack Nelson (SGC 40 VG 3), Dave Orr (SGC 20 FAIR 1.5), Charles "Ripslager" (SGC 50 VG/EX 4) and Chief Roseman (SGC 84 NM 7). Most of the lower grades have been penalized greatly for glue remains on the reverse, whiletheir fronts appear EX-NM with great images the pop out at you - unlike many of the faint Old Judges.

If you were to take a look at the pop reports of PSA and SGC for these 15 cards you will find that both companies have graded very few spotted ties. In fact, PSA reports having graded less than 30 total cards, for the 15 in this near set. The majority of them would be the highest grade in either PSA or SGC's pop report. Pop 1 highest grade would be an understatement! A rare and possibly unique opportunity to acquire a high grade visually attractive near complete set of the most sought-after Old Judge cards-all in one offering.
