Pittsburgh Pirates

Pittsburgh Pirates 37615 — a tobacco card from the dead-ball era, when the Pirates wore wool flannels heavy with Allegheny dust and Forbes Field was still a young cathedral. The lithograph carries that peculiar stillness of early cardboard: a ballplayer caught mid-century in pose, his stance preserved by a cigarette company long since vanished. About the Source Bella Frye sources sports artifacts from American archives — the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for inventor's drawings, and from the great American tobacco-card and broadside traditions for vintage memorabilia: Allen & Ginter, T206, Cracker Jack, Boston Garter, the Negro League broadsides, and the early press photographs that documented baseball, football, golf, and the rest of the American sporting century.
