I haven't seen too much advertising material (excluding magazine ads of course) or pamphlets for the T cards era, but perhaps I just haven't been looking in the right places. Is there much advertising material out there? I have nothing to add from a card perspective, but ran across this promo pamphlet for Mathewson's Pitching in a Pinch:

Interestingly there seems to be more non-magazine/newspaper advertising for N-cards than there is for T-cards. Though rare, you see large adverting posters for Old Judges and Allen & Ginters. When's the last time anyone saw a similar poster for T206s or T205s?

but the original Lipset book on Early Candy and Gum Cards has it on the cover (maybe the reprint does too--I don't know).

From "The Saturday Evening Post" December, 1910. Thanks to Scott Forrest for the heads up on the auction--real cheap.

featuring Wagner.

Also had a card advertising the first printing of "The Glory of Their Times", signed by many players who were featured in the book (Marquard, Snodgrass, etc.). I should never have parted with it.

For one of my favorite baseball books...

Scott: I posted this without looking at your previous post. Is this the same card? Max

Here's a little cardboard item promoting the Big Baseball Book For Boys, a relatively common book (at least without dust jacket) from 1931.

Thought Scott and Max might like to see this autograph that I have of Chief Meyers in the actual book. I purchased the book from a book dealer in Chief Meyers' home town of Riverside, CA.

Glory Of Their Times is a classic.
I have a few royalty checks from the '60's, here is my favorite one
of Marquard, he even signed the back twice.
