1921-1930 Major League Baseball Die-Cuts Shanty Hogan New York Giants
These die-cut, blank-back player cards were issued over the period 1921-30 for use with a board game called, “Major League Ball - The Indoor Baseball Game Supreme,” from The National Game Makers of Washington, D.C. Measuring about 2-1/2" to 2-3/4" tall x 1" to 1-1/4" wide, the cards were originally printed on a sheet of 14 from which they were punched out to play the game. The cards were issued in team sets with on-field roster changes reflected in the player cards over the years. Individual cards are generic, liberally sharing the same poses and portraits with identification possible only by changes to the uniform and the player ID printed in the box below the figure. That
player data changed from year to year and the only way to determine exact year of issue is when the player card is found with a complete team set, often in a small pre-printed manila envelope. It is unknown whether all teams were issued in all years. According to information found with the game, stickers could be purchased each year to update the game’s figures with new player identification. Beginning in at least 1925 player cards
were numbered at bottom within team set.
