Old Judge Wooden Cigar Box w/ 1883 tax stamp
 

Posted By: <b>chris</b><p>I recently picked this Old Judge box up on Ebay and I while I haven't really been a collector of vintage baseball cards (mostly uniforms and equipment etc), I have been moving into vintage photos lately and would love to add an Old Judge baseball card to my collection. I am not concerned about condition, and in fact, would prefer to have an inexpensive card to pair with this item.<br><br>I would appreciate knowing what forum collectors may have avaialable. I would really like to have a card with a batting pose, or equipment visiible, if possible, but am not too picky. Perhaps, someone could also tell me more about the factory indicated on the box - Factory 1618, Ninth District, State of Pennsylvania.<br><br>Thanks! chris<br><br>[IMG]<img src="http://i518.photobucket.com/albums/u349/stealhome/41ed_0.jpg" alt="[linked image]">[/IMG]<br><br>[IMG]<img src="http://i518.photobucket.com/albums/u349/stealhome/45e0_0.jpg" alt="[linked image]">[/IMG]<br><br>[IMG]<img src="http://i518.photobucket.com/albums/u349/stealhome/4bdb_0.jpg" alt="[linked image]">[/IMG]

Posted By: <b>Jon Canfield</b><p>Chris - Jay is correct. OJ cards were packaged inside &quot;slide and shell&quot; boxes of Old Judge cigarettes. Here is a link to what the packs look like.<br><br><a href="http://baseballandtobacco.com/n172.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://baseballandtobacco.com/n172.htm</a><br><br>======================================<b r>For the premier online souce of information on baseball-related cigarette packs, visit <a href="http://www.baseballandtobacco.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.baseballandtobacco.com</a>
