JeffHello,
I am looking to see if I can get any information on the La Azora Cigar company, I know they were around from at the least 1908-1912, but I can find no more information on them. I have seen in a picture from 1908 Bennett Park (Tiger Stadium) an advertisement in the left field corner saying "Home of La Azora the Cigar of Cigars 50 to every player scoring a home run." The 1912 date comes from a Detroit team schedule for the 1912 season I have, with a picture of Ty Cobb on the other side. The card measures 3.5" + 5.5"
I was wondering if anyone has seen any other type of cards, Post cards, Schedules or whatever with this ad on the back or front? Where they only issued for Detroit or did other teams have this advertisement as well for their season schedules of 1912 or any other years?
Any ideas on how were they distributed?
