shown here for scale. As you can see, this was just a portion of a full-page ad. Many of the department stores that issued m101 cards devoted very little space to advertising them. They packed a lot of sales items into their weekly or more frequent offerings, but gave short shrift to the baseball pictures. Makes for many a fruitless search, but gives a good idea of what consumerism was like a hundred years ago. At least Herpolsheimers gave this a somewhat prominent spot on the page--most ads are tucked in toward the bottom.
