These 1-5/8" X 2-7/8" cards were issued
by the Mayo Tobacco Works of Richmond, VA. There are 48 cards
in the set, with 40 different players pictured. Twenty-eight of
the players are pictured in uniform and 12 are shown in street
clothes. Eight players appear both ways. Eight of the uniformed
players appear in two variations, creating the 48-card total.
Card fronts are black-and-white or sepia portraits on black cardboard,
with a Mayo's Cut Plug ad at the bottom of each card. Cards are
blank-backed and unnumbered. The legendary Cap Anson is pictured
on this great card with rounded corners, a few creases, even wear,
and clear overall image. Graded GOOD by SGC.
