One of the earliest baseball cards ever printed, the 1886 Red Stocking Cigar baseball card set actually consists of three known cards. The three players depicted are C.G. Buffington, Capt. John F. Morrill, and Charles Radbourn. These unnumbered cards were discovered by a collector named Jim McClean. Each lithographed card featured black and red, full-body drawings of the player and measures 5 ½” by 3 ¾”.
