die cuts
Hi Daniel,
These are generic baseball die cuts from the 1880's. They are made from thin (but sturdy) cardboard. I bought some a while back that were pasted in a scrap book next to some 1888 Scrapps Tobacco die cuts so I am guessing they were made about the same time. I have never seen the Detroit die cuts before. The die cuts I have are Boston. They are very cool. Here is a photo of some of mine.
