I only know McGrath for his other T218 and T227 cards. I've been looking for a third copy of his 'finger smudge' T218 for years. |

Looks like they are known in baseball land. Mathewson and McGraw were sold as "circa 1910", Johnson as 1910.

Morgan appears to be an unissued copy of the card.

At least 8 cards exist. This one strongly suggests a post 1912 issue date.

I don't know how often they changed the ads then, but if it's anything like today, the ads could well be issued across a few years.

Lasky got into the film business in 1913, it is very unlikely his card is from before them and is probably somewhat after to be referred to as the wizard of it. I cannot find evidence for this 1912 claim for McGrath. EDIT: I cannot find any evidence the hobby knew of this card at all before 2023. This makes me doubtful there is an evidentiary basis for this claim. The 1910 date on the baseballs does not seem to be evidentiary. Last edited by G1911; 04-12-2023 at 09:30 AM. |

Here's another ad, from 1914, with Johnson and some other subjects without cards yet known to me.
