It's slabbed an SGC 30 and I think it's slightly undergraded. It presents very well for the grade and the back really stands out. The red pops so much more in-hand.
Bresnahan's SABR profile is fascinating and I'd recommend it. He played all nine positions; pitched a complete game shutout in his debut at 18 years old before being released a year later during a salary dispute; was one of the first catchers to bat at the top of the lineup; and helped bring into the game a number of equipment and safety measures for catchers.
Bresnahan also formed a battery with some guy named Christy Mathewson.
That is a great looking card, congrats on the addition!
ReplyDeleteLove this one. I've started looking hard at the set since it's a great way to find attractive cards of Hall of Famers at good prices.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. My eyes must suck, because I can't figure out what dropped this grade so much.
