Rare find in Traverse City antique store - info?
Found this after hearing "no i dont believe so, but take a look - you never know!" when asking the shop owner if she had any baseball cards. Some searching tells me it is likely from the 1880s, but not finding much else. Do the pre-war gurus have anything to add? Only a couple others from the "set" are in the SGC pop report.
At the least, its really cool to see a woman depicted on baseball cards, about 30 years before the 19th amendment and 60 years before the female stars of the 1940's took the field. And was a fun find, as so often I leave those shops empty handed.
