T-Cards (Early 20th-Century Tobacco) For Sale
$10,700 The 1911 T201 Mecca Double Folders remain one of the most innovative and appealing of the early twentieth-century tobacco series. It is also considered by many collectors to be among the best values of all tobacco-card issues. The set is a hobby classic and contains cards representing twenty Hall of Fame players. All fifty cards in this set have been graded by SGC with the large majority graded either SGC 40 (VG) or SGC 50 (VG/EX), with a handful higher and a couple lower.
The specific grades for each player pair are: Further details about the T201 Mecca Double Folders Set are provided on the Old Cardboard website.
$2,550 1948 Old Gold Cigarettes Jackie Robinson with "standing in dugout" pose. Ad message on front with facsimile signature. Image is near photo quality with a semigloss finish. A fairly detailed backgrounder on Robinson is printed on the card back. Very scarce card in near perfect condition. Crisp corners with no sign of any visible defects. Further details about the Jackie Robinson Old Gold Set are provided on the Old Cardboard website.
$850 Because of their size and color appeal, Turkey Reds are one of the most popular of all tobacco issues. They were available only by mail as premiums in exchange for coupons packed with Turkey Red Cigarettes. Due to their enlarged size, the T3 cabinets are easily damaged and particularly difficult to find in high grade--especially for the cards of Mordecai Brown. Brown's card was #1, so he often found his way to the top card in a collection of T3s, the most vulnerable place to be. The Brown cabinet has a 75-card "checklist" back. Except for the letter "E" stamped lightly in the lower right corner, this example could grade Excellent or better (see high-resolution scans). It has no creases, stains or other major flaws. A very colorful addition to any set. Further details about the T3 Turkey Red Cabinets Set are provided on the Old Cardboard website..
$660 This card of Detroit's left fielder Matty McIntyre was issued in 1910 and 1911 as premiums for purchasers of Turkey Red, Old Mill or Fez cigarettes--all products of the American Tobacco Company. The set is assigned the number T3 in the American Card Catalog. Due to their enlarged size, the T3 cabinets are easily damaged and particularly difficult to find in high grade. The offered example is very clean on both front and back with some corner wear (see high-resolution scans). It has no creases, stains or other major flaws. A very clean and colorful addition to any set. Further details about the T3 Turkey Red Cabinets Set are provided on the Old Cardboard website.. | ||||||||||||||
