Item Description
1.5x2.5". Issued continuously from 1887 to 1890, the Goodwin Company's Old Judge baseball series depicts hundreds of ballplayers from more than 40 major and minor league teams, as well as boxers and wrestlers. Astonishingly, more than 4,500 different types of cards and variations are known to exist. Image presented here is bold with fine contrast, a most important aspect of these Old Judge tobacco cards.
Louis W. "Jumbo" Schoeneck was a Major League Baseball first baseman. He played for the Chicago Browns/Pittsburgh Stogies (1884) and Baltimore Monumentals (1884), both of the Union Association, and for the National League Indianapolis Hoosiers (1888-1889). He received the nickname "Jumbo" because he was 6 ft 3 in and weighed 223 pounds.
