Federal League Cards - Quiz
 

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>Can anyone give an example of a vintage card picturing a player in a Federal League uniform? ...the fact that it says "federal league" in the caption is not enough, and generic uniforms don't count - it has to be clearly identifiable as a Federal League uni <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>That was quick, so since you are an expert <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> I'll make it harder: Do any other card sets show Fed League unis? ...and are all Fed League team unis represented on cards? (I don't personally know the answers)

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>Good try! Plus, the Coupons all use the same pictures from the t206 set - since it's 1909-11, no Coupon cards have Fed League unis pictured.

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>I don't think this is the case, but it's possible some of the Coupon pictures were "re-worked" to add Fed League unis?

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>who used to collect Federal League cards - I figured he would chime in at some point. I'm beginning to think that the only cards showing Fed League unis are a handful of CJ's.<br /><br />I have a book of Conlon photos that shows a portrait of George Stovall in a Kansas City uniform - it's the only one of Conlon's photos of a Federal League player that still exists. Kind of a mystery why there are no others since Conlon worked out of New York City and there was a Federal League Team in Brooklyn - maybe he didn't want to ruin his relationship with the NYC teams.

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>I know there is at least one Cracker Jack Federal League card showing the player wearing a uniform that had a large star on the chest. Can't remember what team that was.

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Sorry, my scanner's on the fritz, but in addition to the Blair and Brennan already mentioned, there are at least three other Cracker Jack cards that purport to show the Federal League uniforms:<br /><br /><b>Zeider - Chicago<br />Suggs - Baltimore<br />Doolan - Baltimore</b><br /><br />The Chicago Whales uniforms look a little iffy (no whale on the shirt), but the Baltimore uniforms clearly show a terrapin on the left breast.<br /><br />Most cards in the set that identify the player as affiliated with the Federal League show generic uniforms or the uniform of the player's previous team.

Posted By: <b>Scott M</b><p>Leon, heres what he was wearing under that windbreaker... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Obviously there are a fair number of Cracker Jack Federal League cards but most are depicted with pretty vanilla uniforms... at least this ones a bit more interesting... <br /><br /><img src="http://home.comcast.net/~phlflyer1/baseball/CrackerJacks/1914CJ_113_Suggs_Front.JPG"><br /><br /><br />Paul, funny you should mention the uniform depicting a "star"... I never paid too much attention to the uniform on this card until Scotts post tonight..<br /><br />I, too, had always thought that perhaps it depicted some type of star but then it dawned on me that the team was from Baltimore and, yes, that IS a Blue Terrapin (Turtle) there on the uniform... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
