Description: For the baseball hobbyist... Early TCMA commemorative REPRINT of 19th Century NUMBER 7 CIGAR card M. J. "KID" MADDEN ~ 1889 Boston Nationals (Braves) Issued by TCMA in 1973 | Commemorates the 1889 Boston National League Baseball Club (later Braves) One of the earliest (and scarcest) commemorative baseball card sets issued by The Card Memorabilia Associates, Limited (TCMA) was the now half century old 1889 NUMBER 7 CIGAR set. Originals of this scarce set are out of reach financially for most collectors.Card size is approximately 3" by 4-1/2". Cards of this rather unusual size will display well in standard 4-pocket sheets designed for smaller postcards (up to 3-1/2 by 5-1/2 inches) with full card coverage. While we could find no record of production numbers, our experience tells us the set from which this card comes was likely produced in quite small quantities. The Standard Catalog of VINTAGE Baseball Cards reports 15 cards to comprise the full set. Condition: Excellent or better - check the high-resolution scans. A colored background is provided to assist in evaluating card corners and edges. Since we have just this one single example of this card, this is the card the buyer will receive.Shipping OPTIONS are available - YOUR CHOICE of either eBay standard envelope service (ESE) which is cheaper with slower delivery or USPS Ground Advantage (more costly for single cards but much faster delivery). We also offer UNLIMITED singles (up to and including 8X10 inches in size) shipped via Ground Advantage for the one card rate. Both services include insurance but USPS Ground Advantage is considerably quicker, with fewer limitations. ~ For Collectors Wishing to Collect the Full Set, here are all 30 Cards Included in Set | Arranged Alphabetically ~ Header Card ~ A.
