Item Description
The 1887 N284 Buchner Gold Coin baseball card set was produced by D. Buchner & Company of New York and distributed with Gold Coin chewing tobacco. The front of the cards features a colorful drawing of a baseball scene which bears no correlation to the players on the card.  Printed on the bottom of the card is the player's name, position and team name. The backs of the N284 set include an advertising message from Gold Coin chewing tobacco.

Jack Clements was an American professional baseball player. He played as a catcher in Major League Baseball for 17 seasons. Despite being left-handed, Clements caught 1,076 games, almost four times as many as any other left-handed player in major league history and was the last left-hander to catch on a regular basis. He is credited with being the first catcher to wear a chest protector.
