If anyone has any N36 A&G American Indians, those would be nice to see, please.

NOTE
Jack "Nonpareil" Dempsey depicted in this set was a 19th-century boxing champion (no relation to the 20th Century Boxer).
Dempsey acquired his nickname, "Nonpareil", since virtually no one could defeat him. In 65 contests, he lost only 3 times.

I'm drawn to the graphics and early lithography. Since you took the time to share - I'll play from a slightly different perspective. Unusual litho paper items from companies associated with baseball cards. I suppose I could offer up any early album as a candidate - the the artistry was spectacular pretty much across the board. I'll post others as time permits - I gotta lotta stuff - the baseball a little harder to get to............

ok ok some baseball :-) I appologize for the OJ banner - out of bounds for this discussion as it's a poster (out of focus as well) - but I love it so I'm making you look!............ The lemon peel base ball on the ticket is gold - I believe it might actually be real gold (as oposed to copper which the lithographers turned to as the processes evolved).

wish you hadn't shown that trade card Bruce - I'm on the fence so to speak about whether to keep mine or not as I prepare to list some better stuff on feebay. Always loved the graphics and the fact they designed a stamp around it is pretty "swell". It was a tough and sought after card long before the internet in the trade card hobby. Based on what I've seen in the past 15 years or so it has maintained it's position well. OK - I think I just convinced myself I can't let it go just yet.
I've owned a few pages from the round album as well but never "in the dough" when I see a complete one (one of 20 or so known albums I'm missing for a run). It's another fine example of an unnamed artist's mastery of the genre and the tobacco company's successful use of premiums in advertising their products - the game of base ball and it's participants a major topical theme of the time - as evidence of this they are still collected today - 125 years or so later...... I know there's at least one out there - nearly perfect with the original mailer - think it was in the 11,000. range maybe 15(?) years ago. I like the advertising page :-)

This isn't a Red Cross baseball card but I thought it was a cool piece and wanted to share:
It is a Lithograph Advertising Poster for the Pierre Abraham Lorillard Tobacco Company's Red Cross Plug Tobacco Brand.
It is quite large and measures overall in frame 46 x 36 inches. It appears to be a lithograph on linen backing.
It is marked Hatch Lithograph Co. New York, NY and most likely comes from the 1880's.
Hatch & Co. specialized in producing fine chromolithographic prints, certificates, labels and advertising, and by the mid-1870’s trade cards. In 1887 they reorganized as the Hatch Litho Co. but they were out of business by 1889.
It is really dirty and I am trying to figure if I should bring it to a conservator. Anyone have experience with that sort of thing?
William coming through with the N36 American Indians. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout! Very nice! Damn, those are bad ass. If I were to ever collect anything non-sport, it would be that set. Thanks for posting.

last one kept as type - my strictly base ball collection is fairly compact. Funny you would show up on this thread - one of my favorite children is the OJ banner posted earlier in this thread - it's been on my bedroom wall since I got it from you 15+ years ago! My wife would have to go before it would :-) Hope you and wife are well and assume you'll see me in Chicago - unless I see you first.........

Leon - I keep seeing the Ben Franklin half dollar you include in the photos for scale, but I have never seen one before, so I don't know how big they are!!!!
Are they the same size as a Kennedy half dollar?

This particular piece is undated. My best guess puts it in the 1910's. I hope that is early enough to qualify for this thread and adds a little value to it. :)
