Baseball trade cards, known by collectors as "Gold Borders", from the "Baseball Series" set (T205), issued in 1911 by the American Tobacco Company. The set represents baseball players from the National, American, and Minor Leagues. Each card advertises one of 11 cigarette or loose tobacco brands produced by the American Tobacco Company, including Hassan, Polar Bear, American Beauty, Cycle, Piedmont, Sovereign, Sweet Caporal, Honest, Broadleaf, Hindu, and Drum. There are 17 different designs employed on card versos. This card contains a printing error. Instead of a white sock depicted in the upper left corner of the card like the other White Sox cards, the sock is red.
