I just started looking at these lawson's not long ago, and i find they don't get the money for an 1884 issue. I know my astute hobbyist can render an answer.
What is your question Larry? They are generic game cards is the reason they probably don't bring much money. Most generic things don't (when speaking of cards).

I think people don't collect them unless there is a named ball player on the card. Otherwise, they'd be just like non-sports cards.

I think I have now found the inspiration Monty Python's animation.

It looks to me like they slabbed the card upside down.
And notwithstanding the antiquity of the card, it's a thinly collected playing card, hence the relatively modest value.
That is a nice looking card.

think they slab them all that way, otherwise others would look upside down on the front.
