This is a baseball card from the "Old Judge" series of trading cards, produced by Goodwin & Company in 1889. It features Henry Carl "Hank" Gastright, a pitcher for the Cleveland team. The card depicts Gastright in a baseball uniform, standing in a field. These cards were given away with Old Judge cigarettes and are now highly collectible. The image itself is a photo-mechanical reproduction using the "chromolithography" technique, popular for printing during the 19th century.
