Jon CanfieldTo add to what both Jay and Richard have said... the originals were made in 1910'ish. To date, I have never seen an original or heard of one - not quite sure exactly what they looked like. n the 1950's, the original graphics were purchased and a bunch of different packs were re-issued. (FYI, the Red Sun cigarette pack pictured in my guide was part of this re-issue. Although graphics were the same, I have never seen an original of that either). These re-issues were carried into the 1970's from what I'm told. As for value, I've seen them sell for $5.00 and I've seen other's fpr $75.00. To be more accurate, I would say $15.00 - $20.00, depending on condition.
I should also mention that the pack I'm referring to is green, shows a great pictures of a batter and catcher on the front...
