Default Richmond, Va. - 2000 tobacco card find

As someone who lives in Richmond and scours the area looking for vintage baseball, I’m dying a little inside that this wasn’t me making this find.

Apparently a local card store in Richmond has just announced that they have acquired a 2000 tobacco card lot from 1890 to 1910 era. Here’s a couple of screenshots of what they showed on their video.

You got to love that they were neatly bundled up with strings! A lot better than finding them with rubber bands from the rubber band era of 1950's into the 1970's.

Looks like quite the haul.

Can you post a link to the video.

For sure, that's the dream a lot of us have.

...old cardboard picture cards, tied up with strings. These are a few of my favorite things...

I love that he pictured the Irv Young cards. Hope he does a little more research before he goes to sell!

Yeah, something is telling me the shop owner is also clueless about rare t206 backs, if there are any.

I live in Richmond, the LCS 3Point focuses on modern and ultra modern, mostly wax. I've spoken to the owners briefly, don't know them well, but yeah my guess is they don't touch vintage much. Hoping they do their research!

Is there a way to see the video if you don't use Instagram?

Sorry, worked on one computer but not the other.
