Default Oldest Baseball Card

Posted By: barrysloate

The 1861 Atlantics CdV was discovered by Mark Rucker in the late 1990's, and I purchased it from him. I later traded it to one of the contributors to this thread. He can step forward if he chooses. To date the card is unique. It pictures both Pete O'Brien as a player, as well as Al Reach. The appearance of both helped us date it to 1860-61.
