Jon Canfield's Baseball Related Cigarette and Tobacco Packs

This set was issued by the American Tobacco Company in 1911 and could be found inside 10-packs of Mecca Cigarettes. A truly innovative concept was used in this set; cards feature two players, both of which could be viewed by flipping the card over. The players' pictures are posed in such a way that the two pictures share the lower half of the card from about the knees down.

Mecca cigarette packs tend to be in high demand, due both to their collectability and their visual appeal. However, don’t expect to have to pay a steep price to acquire one.

Approximate value of a Mecca cigarette box would be $85.00.
