Corey-That's a great piece, but that wouldn't fit my definition. For me, a baseball cards has to have one or several identifiable players. I would consider your piece baseball related, but not a baseball card.

I feel like a noob for asking, but I’ve always wondered what does CDV stand for?

Dan-CdV stands for Carte de Visite. This was the main type of photographic card before being supplanted by cabinet cards.

Well, these 1871 Troy Haymakers cards aren't old enough to be the first BB cards; but, they sure are rare.
Ten such cards were issued in 1871 - 1872 portraying players on this National Association team. William "Clipper" Flynn (1871 - 1872) ![]() Tom York (1871 - 1885) ![]() TED Z T206 Reference . |

Out of curiosity, why are the 1869 Peck & Snyders so often considered the first as opposed to some of those from earlier years?
The 1866 CDV Unions of Lansingburgh cards, for example, look very much like cards to me. What is it that disqualifies them? |

LOL, Buchner made me realize how much alike many players looked. It’s a pity that Buchner didn’t do a better job on baseball. They did a great job on the Police and Fire Chiefs set. |
