WTB: Pre-war basketball cards
Looking to buy any pre-war basketball cards. Anything from 1891 to 1939. US or international.
Even if not for sale, it would be great to see what everyone has. Here are a few I already have. Last edited by Mikan99; 01-11-2024 at 09:26 PM. |

I did not realize they played outside 90 years ago. That's neat to see.

Coming up to 133 years of basketball since James Naismith invented the game.
- Dec 1891: First game - 1892: First public game - 1893: First college game - 1896: First professional game For me, the first basketball card is the 1903 Tetlow College Girl. |

Nice collection! I just joined net54 after seeing that there are other early Basketball collector's on here. It's nice to know I'm not alone. If anyone has the Tetlow or Hamilton Girl's cards they're willing to part with, I'm very interested.

Not a basketball card, but a minor league baseball card of HOF'er Bennie Borgmann:
