'41 Play Ball - Paper Issue
Posted By: Judge Dred (Fred)
These are tough... I've only seen a few of them. By the looks of yours they must have been hand cut. The ones I recall must have been cut by someone that wanted to ensure that the aesthetic quality of the card was similar to that of the thicker issue. I've heard people state that the cards were produced like this to save material for the war effort but when it comes down to it the bombing of Pearl Harbor didn't take place until December of 1941. We weren't fighting in Europe at that time but we were kind of gearing up to get ready for the forthcoming conflicts.
