Only four of the eight Player's League teams had cards made in 1890 (Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Chicago) before the tobacco trust was formed and the card presses screeched to a halt. Ward was on the Brooklyn team, appropriately called Ward's Wonders, and they didn't make the deadline.
Good catch by Joe on the "0" number Fb. The production crew missed cleaning that negative.
