Home About Old Judge Type Cards
Hickory + Hide

Welcome!

This site features my Pre-WWI Baseball cards. From my favorite set, the 1886-90 N172 Old Judge issue, you will find the Boston Beaneaters, Hall of Fame members, and other favorites. I am especially interested in subjects from the Script Series (including the Spotted Ties subset.)

I also collect Boston Type Cards through 1913.
