Rare N173 King Kelly Cabinet Makes Auction Debut

July 20, 2022 By Rich Mueller

If you smoked a lot of Old Judge or Gypsy Queen cigarettes and liked baseball back in the late 1880s, there’s a chance you might have seen the ad for them.  At that time, though, sending away for a large photo of a professional baseball player wasn’t necessarily at the top of a guy’s to-do list.  That’s why the 1888-89 Old Judge Premium cabinet cards are not exactly … [Read more...] about Rare N173 King Kelly Cabinet Makes Auction Debut

He hit 60 homers that season, but if you'd pulled his card out of an Exhibit Supply Company machine around that time, you might have seen Babe Ruth showcasing the other side of his game.  On Wednesday, collectors had a chance to own an original copy of the same photo but you had to come with a fat wallet to be in the hunt.   The 6 1/2 x 8 1/2-inch … [Read more...] about Important Ruth, Mantle Photos Top Hunt Auctions Premier Event

Photo of the Day: Anson, Kelly and the 1882 Chicago White Stockings

November 1, 2018 By Rich Mueller

The faces have faded just a bit in the 136 years since they sat for a photographer, but make no mistake. The image captured in a photo studio that year captured one of the best accumulations of talent in the early history of professional baseball. The 1882 Chicago White Stockings featured Mike “King” Kelly, who loved parties, alcohol and women almost as much as baseball and … [Read more...] about Photo of the Day: Anson, Kelly and the 1882 Chicago White Stockings

Mike Kelly is King of Nineteenth Century Baseball Cards

September 12, 2017 By Chris Levy

No film exists of professional baseball in the nineteenth century. Without moving pictures we are left with colorful, often embellished, words to describe the early greats of the game. In those early days in the league's formative years no player's exploits jump off the page more-so than Mike 'King' Kelly. While we can't hear him speak in his thick Irish brogue, we can … [Read more...] about Mike Kelly is King of Nineteenth Century Baseball Cards

19th Century Baseball Cards: 10 Great Players to Consider

March 2, 2015 By Graham Womack

Baseball cards didn't really gain mass popularity until the 1950s, but that doesn't mean cards weren't produced for any number of other greats. Just a few years ago, one of the world's oldest cards, thought to be a team shot of the 1865 Brooklyn Atlantics sold at auction for $92,000. There are many collectors who specialize in cards that date back a century or more and many of … [Read more...] about 19th Century Baseball Cards: 10 Great Players to Consider
