Default FS-Early 1900's Alex. Taylor & Co. Base Ball Mask Labels

Picked these up at a flea market several months back... the gent found them in a box with 4 different caged (looked turn of the century to me) catchers masks in an old warehouse in worcester Mass (hambland & Russell?). the cages were nice, but the padding was rotted away on the masks so I passed on them... There was a pile of these with them in the box of cages. There were about 100, I believe I got the better portion of the lot (49 in total)

My guess is that they are labels that were to be affixed to mask boxes

Plenty of info found on the Alex. taylor co, but not much on hampland and russell.

I have sold off a few, but still have 35 nice examples left...

I will sell the entire lot for $35 pp gift shipped
