What are these?
 

On ebay there was a victorian scrapbook that ended with a bunch of Detroit Wolverines die cuts. Does anyone know what set these die cuts are from? They dont appear to be R&S or N301's to me but I could be wrong.

What does everyone think?

not those
 

They aren't the ones you mentioned. I have collected Victorian baseball player cards for some time and these aren't any I have seen. That doesn't surprise me though as I am sure there are hundreds I haven't seen yet. First of all, if I were buying the book, I would make sure the baseball ones were on cardboard. One picture looks like the bottom is sticking up a little and it looks to be thin, but too hard to tell for sure.

I think they are generic baseball die cuts from the 1880's to 1890's, and if on cardboard, are worth a little bit....maybe $25 each....or somewhere in that range. Some may think higher but I think I am close, given their generic and non-equipment, nature. These are just semi-educated guesses :). They are neat looking.

Hi Daniel,
These are generic baseball die cuts from the 1880's. They are made from thin (but sturdy) cardboard. I bought some a while back that were pasted in a scrap book next to some 1888 Scrapps Tobacco die cuts so I am guessing they were made about the same time. I have never seen the Detroit die cuts before. The die cuts I have are Boston. They are very cool. Here is a photo of some of mine.
