"Roseman" is a trade card from the "Old Judge" series produced by Goodwin & Co. in 1887-1890. The series featured baseball players, and this card showcases a portrait of the player Roseman. The image is a black and white photograph, printed on a card with the Old Judge cigarette brand name across the top. These cards were given away with packs of Old Judge cigarettes, a popular method of advertising during the late 19th century. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York holds this card.
