Default Stereoscopic baseball cards

Posted By: hankron

Baseball stereoviews are collectable though not nearly as as expensive as cabinet cards or CDVs. The ones Jason posted are some fine early examples. Baseball stereoviews can be found from the 1860s and were made into the 1900s. There are examples showing Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig ... Though the collector would have to learn how to judge the date (just like with tintypes), stereoviews are rarely faked like baseball cards-- which, of course, is nice for the potential collector.
