The T209 black-and-whites are a bit mindful of Billikens in their rustic way, don't you think, Travis? Here are some of the small handful I have.





One of my little collecting projects is to gather any T209-2s and T210s for players who are depicted in the Contentnea Color series. I'm not too far along with it but here are a couple of players. The change in teams in each case suggest the order and timing of manufacture/distribution. (I don't think I just invented the light bulb).

John Cooper is listed at baseball-reference.com as a third baseman for Wilson of the Eastern Carolina League in 1909 and for Wilmington in 1910. I borrowed the T210 scan from vcp.com.



Marty Walsh was listed as an outfielder with Greensboro in 1909 and a pitcher in 1910 with Norfolk.
