Detroit would make sense as they made it to the 1909 World Series. These little pieces of card board were put in the packages to sell cigarettes, so the more popular the team and subjects the more desire to buy another pack.
As a period Charlotte Observer reveals--it wasn't just smokers buying cigarettes, kids went crazy over them as well--kids would buy the packs for a nickel, remove the cards, then resell the cigarettes at half price--I'm paraphrasing.
