I beleive they are the first baseball cards ever sold (rather than given out as advertising pieces or prizes). Feels like that should give them a ton of hobby cred, but it doesn't seem to.

wow luke - we are on the same page. i think more about history in general so to me it seems like the set seems like a no brainer. that's a really powerful statement about the exhibits being the first ever sold. would love to hear you speak more about this if you ever wrote or considered writing an essay on them/this topic.
cheers; great to hear your opinion on this. we are totally in agreement!!
