RichardI have recently been given a large box of cigarette cards, all the dated ones seem to be 1880s-1890s and include bathing belles, horses, filmstars etc. Amongst the collection are about 40 baseball cards. I have absolutely no idea about these things so would appreciate any info. Sadly they appear to have been glued onto an album page or something and have later been cut out with the backing still on the cards which I imagine will affect their value. 6 samples in pic.
The names arent clear in the pic, they are:
Arundel, catcher Indiannapolis.
Richardson 2nd base, NY.
O'Brien, 1st base, Washington
Denny 3rd base, Indiannapolis.
Anson, 1st base, Chicago
Keefe, Pitcher, NY
Thankyou.
