Earliest Baseball card set

Posted By: JimB

The talk over in the KBats thread brings up a question for me that I have been e-mailing about with a friend this week. What do you all consider to be the first real baseball card set? Of course there will probably be a variety of opinions and more questions about what constitutes a "card" or a "set".

If the Kbats NY cards are a set unto themselves and they can be dated to 1886 (sounds possible, but not at all certain), then they may be in the running with the N167 Old Judges (1886). Thoughts?
