Oldest Baseball Card

Posted By: Hal Lewis

I have a card from 1861-64 that features Henry Chadwick standing alongside members of the Brooklyn Resolutes and the Philadelphia Athletics from the National Association of Baseball Players.

I like to think of this card as the first baseball card...

but I can understand why the Peck & Snyders are "more" like cards since they have advertising on the back.
