1914 Baltimore News card research...
I am doing a little research on 1914 Baltimore News cards, especially the Ruth.
If anyone has done any research on this issue or is very familiar with the issue, please contact me. Specifically, I am trying to figure out exactly how these cards were issued. I know that one of the backs states "Read the Baltimore News," but it does not say anything on how to get a card. The other back states "Compliments of Baltimore International/Federal League," so obviously these cards were given out on behalf of the team, but how? Has anyone ever seen a newspaper advertisement? Also, with regards to the Ruth card specifically, when is the first time that this card was catalogued? I know that the 1991 Sothebys Copeland sale had one of the best examples known - does anyone know of anything earlier? I have scoured my run of The Trader Speaks, but have been unable to find anything. I appreciate any help.
