McElveen Brooklyn Baseball Card Piedmont Cigarette - An exceptional example of an early 20th-century baseball card from the Piedmont Cigarette ”Base Ball Series” featuring McElveen of the Brooklyn club. The card displays the classic design of the era with a vibrant red background and a colored portrait showing McElveen. The reverse carries the Piedmont branding and ”350 Subjects” notation. The card shows honest wear consistent with age and handling, with minor edge wear and some foxing to the cream colored border typical of cards that have survived over a century, and creasing.
