This is a trading card from the *Old Judge* series of baseball cards, produced by Goodwin & Company in the late 19th century. This particular card features Boston Beaneater third baseman, B. Nash. The image depicts Nash in a simple portrait style, emphasizing his uniform and athletic posture. The card's small size, typical of *Old Judge* cards, showcases the details of Nash's uniform, including his cap, white jersey, and pants. This card is a good example of the popularity of baseball trading cards in the 19th century, used to promote Old Judge Cigarettes. This piece is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
