The 1888 Allen & Ginter N29 series is comprised of six baseball players, only one of whom, the offered Buck Ewing, is a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. Graded a "40" by SGC, this piece abounds in color and definition. Degraded by a moderate crease running through the body of the card, the eye-appeal is nonetheless maintained. Typified by thicker cardboard, only minimal corner and edge wear is evident. A formidable specimen of this New York slugger.
