History T cards are a lot cheaper than athletes. These are T175's, cut from the packaging of the cigarettes in between the 2 great tobacco card periods. Fitzhugh Lee was the nephew of R.E. Lee, and lived a fascinating life in his own right. Lodge was one of the more significant figures in the senate for decades. Sampson and Schley appeared in T68, and Schley in T118 as an arctic explorer for his relief expeditions as well. Admiral Schlei of the baseball issues received his nickname from this Schley. Chang is a clue that the "Heroes of the Spanish War" title this set goes by today is not exactly correct. Some of the subjects seem to be from the Boxer Rebellion. Some of the cards have commas after their names, but no subsequent title listed. Oops.
