June 15, 2023: Tobacco Cards Only Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/15/2023
Presented is an important 1913 T200 Fatima Team card of the Pittsburgh Nationals, the unique 16-card set that followed on the heels of the tobacco card heyday from 1909 to 1912 with a 2 5/8-by-4 ¾-inch black-and-white card that was inserted into tins of the Fatima Cigarette Co. products. Printed on a brittle, thicker card stock with a gelatin coating on the front, the cards are sensitive to cracking and scratching. The offered card is found in an SGC Authentic (Evidence of Trim) holder, with some of the expected cracking, creasing and scratches on the front; the Fatima Cigarettes card back has some notable staining and toning.
