1914 Sweet Caporal player ads

[Bridwell]

I bought these on ebay a long time ago. They are pretty large: 9x11 inches. Does anybody else have any of these? I liked seeing T206 guys advertising Sweet Caporal.

These are incredibly cool!!! Thank you for sharing.

I'd love to see a "checklist" of these. Does anyone else have any?

I don't have any of the ads Ron but I know there were quite a few different players used in them and most were T206 subjects I know I remember seeing Rube Oldring and Dode Paskert among others I'll see what I can find and post them here.

There was a contest involving Philadelphia players at the time the ads were run but I'm not sure why some were Philly players and some weren't.

These are really nice it would be a fun project if you could checklist them all.

Here are a few that weren't in your post.

Neat ads. Thanks for sharing, guys.

Curious that so far we're missing the biggest stars of the day: Cobb, Matty, Wagner, Johnson, Speaker, Wood, etc. Wondering if that might have had something to do with money.

It looks like the contest was just for Philadelphia players.

Any ads with T-206 ballplayers touting other T206-back brands?

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not aware of any other T206 cigarette brands or tobacco brands where T206 players were directly endorsing the product. Anyone else know of any?

I collect other advertising featuring T206 players, and have ads where players are endorsing baseball equipment but also ads endorsing about 30 other products.
