At the baseball card show on Sunday, I splurged on my first T206 baseball card, and it came with the Piedmont cigarette pack it may have come in!

Not sure if this is true, but I heard during the late 1800s-early 1900s that the idea of putting cards in the pre rolled cigarette packs is the reason people took to buying pre rolled as opposed to rolling their own. People were skeptical of letting other people roll their smokes, so the idea of getting free cards was enough of an incentive to try them.

Cards were issued as stiffeners to the packs in the early 1880's to protect cigarettes from squashing. Companies then hit on the idea to use the stiffener as advertisements and add subjects of interest to smokers. Beauties and personalities were amongst some of the early subject matter followed by a plethora of . Nothing to do with rolling your own as far as I know. No matter what the brand of cigarette or tobacco is, if the back has a factory number on it then it was issued by the American Tobacco Co.

I am not a smoker and collect baseball cards. While I was a history major in college, I have no interest in a cigarette box-- even though it was a vehicle to get a baseball card in the past. I am not a baseball memoribilia person but understand why people collect items that remind them of the past or are interesting to them. I would want the T-206 card and have a number of them in my collection.Again, I understand your interest in your purchase but the card is what I would want. Thanks for your video.

I did get two, Harry Davis and one that I don’t remember due to giving it to my brother and getting lost over the years. I still do have the Davis card.

Keep the pack. Sell the card. If I didn’t need the funds. I’d probably keep both.

Getting cards for less than they’re worth, using patience as my superpower is my extremely long middle name. 😂. I’m thinking I should make content out of my rarest objects… but I want to get more subscribers first. Any thoughts on what was the best way to get adds, early on, without a pandemic? 😂

Mine was post-pandemic too. Consistent posting is probably the most universal advice.

@@JunkWaxHero thanks, I’m trying to post once a day. Should be easier, if I was comfortable on camera, but I come from a media background, behind the canera, so I feel like every post has to be a little movie!? I’m just now going back and adding some #hashtags Praying I get to 1k, so I can start going Live… just to get more comfortable with my face being out there. 😆 here’s to your continued success 😎👍

@@JunkWaxHero I was hoping by the end of the year. I’m going to start posting some super rare video game content before the Football season starts.. that might help gain new audiences. I’m dismayed there’s no “collecting” or Hobby category in KZfaq. I’m going to go check to see what category all your videos are in. 👍

Pretty sure the KZfaq algorithm is broken. I don't know what would ever make it think I wanted to know about baseball cards. I don't think I've ever even owned one. Even accidentally.
