    Pre-WWI baseball cards

    I love the really old cards, so as the season kicks off could we have some images of pre-WWI cards please. And it would be fun if everyone could stick to cards from the team/town they follow.

    Here's Michael 'King' Kelly, catcher, Boston, National League, 1888.

    Here's John Clarkson, Boston, 1887

    To end this post, here's Black Jack Burdock from the Boston Beaneaters, 1887. Work that pose Jack!

    And look what they did to King Kelly's card!

    'Kid' Squirrely indeed!




    Is this where Jerry Lewis got his crazy footwork moves from?
