This is a baseball card from the T206 series, produced by the American Tobacco Company between 1909 and 1911. The card depicts Rube Waddell, a pitcher for the St. Louis Browns (now the Cardinals). These cards were given away with packages of cigarettes, making them highly collectible today. The card showcases Waddell in a baseball uniform, with his name and team printed below the image. The iconic design of the T206 series is still popular today and has made these cards a valuable part of baseball history.
