Cards in the 60-card "strip set" measure
about 1-3/8" X 2-1/4" and feature color drawings. Backs
are blank. The card number along with the player's name, position
and team appear in the bottom border. Most cards also display
a "U&U" copyright line, indicating that the photos
were provided by Underwood & Underwood, a major news photo
service of the day. The set has a heavy emphasis on New York players
with 39 of the 60 card depicting members of the Yankees, Dodgers
or Giants. Babe Ruth appears on two cards and two other cards
picture two players each. Burleigh Grimes is pictured above. VG-EX
condition.
