A few weeks back I posted my project to assemble a type collection displaying the history and vagaries if baseball cards prior to World War 1.
I asked for, and got, some great ideas for new additions. I've added four new cards and I'm looking for more suggestions. I want cards that tell something interesting about the hobby. Here are the four new additions and why 1888 Scrapps Tobacco - now that we know these are actually H.D. Smith, they were the first cards issued with gum 1893 Talk Of The Diamond - shows the high interest in baseball as well as the humor of the times 1912 C46 - among the first international baseball cards showing the growth of the sport 1918 Zeenut - the only cards issued during the height of World War 1 What should I add next? I want interesting stories behind the cards. |
