Default Horizontal Zeenuts...

Posted By: brian p

The makers of Zeenuts, while producing great cards for almost three decades, were not horribly inventive when it came to design. The cards are uniformly standard full body action poses with a vertical orientation. The three exceptions that I know of are the horizontal 1911 card of Halla (I believe it was Halla) that was posted on this site a couple of weeks ago, a horizontal 1914 Cartwright of San Francisco, and the 1919 head and shoulders shot of Fanny Arbuckle pretnding to eat a baseball.

If there are more horizontal shots they are likely to be in either the 1911 or 1912 sets, as they are larger size cards and perhaps more accomodating to squat down pitching and fielding photos.
