It features the baseball player in a classic pose, holding a bat, wearing a uniform and cap. This card is a fine example of sports-related ephemera and is housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY. The card itself measures 2 11/16 x 1 3/8 inches. These cards are of particular interest to collectors of baseball cards, as they are some of the earliest baseball cards ever produced.
