Classic movies and cards

[gonefishin]

I've never watched this 1919 silent era movie, "The Busher" so I don't know if there were any actual baseball players, or cards, in the movie. Here is an authentic lobby card that I have from that time. This was one of the earliest known movies featuring baseball as a theme.

In The Sandlot, there's an entire box of Post cereal with 1962 cards on the back on their breakfast table

A couple of TV episodes in the Star Trek universe featured baseball cards. Here is a breakdown: https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Baseball_card

Not a card, but a photo, and, um, not a movie, either, but a TV show...
but kind of vintage, so... this portrait photo of what appears to be
Grover Alexander is seen quite prominently, and rather inexplicably,
on the wall of a camera shop in a circa 1960 episode of Perry Mason...

Plus a Henry Aaron RC that Babe Ruth asks to keep in what's his name's dream

I have seen that one a before and it's cool.
Here is an early Babe Lobby card...probably 1920 as that is when the baseball cards were issued.

Not sure if this was said but the movie The Christmas Chronicles with Kurt Russell. Kurt as Santa wanted to trade a guy a mint 1952 Mantle rookie for the guys Porshe. Very good move.

Too late, I see this was already mentioned.

Glad to read there is a sequel coming out. I've watched that movie a few times now and thought to myself, this is ripe for a sequel.
I see it is supposed to be released April 28th. The trailer looks good. Just hope it is as good as the first one or at least close.

I believe an episode of The Dick Van Dyke show Head curds in it. Richie was at a table playing with his baseball cards. I want to say 1961 topps

There was an episode of MacGuyver that was about counterfeit cards, the wall behind the counter was loaded with 90 Donruss cards. Also there was an episode of Seinfeld where there is a random box of 90 Donruss on top of Jerry's fridge.
