This is a "baseball card" from the *Old Judge* series, created in 1887 by Goodwin & Company to promote Old Judge Cigarettes. The card features James Francis "Pud" Galvin, a pitcher for the Pittsburgh Alleghenys. The image depicts Galvin in a baseball uniform, holding a bat, and provides a glimpse into the history of 19th-century professional baseball. It is a prime example of early baseball cards that were used as advertising and collectibles.
