EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the White Border series (T206) by the American Tobacco Company showcases Norman Arthur Elberfeld, also known as "Elberfeld Kid" a prominent baseball player of the early 20th century. The image captures Elberfeld in his Washington Senators uniform, representing the American League during this era. The lithograph features vibrant colors and a striking red background that adds to its visual appeal. Elberfeld's confident posture and sportswear exude an air of determination and skill, reflecting his prowess on the baseball field. As one of America's favorite pastimes, baseball holds a special place in our country's heritage. This trade card serves as a testament to both the popularity of sports and the influence of tobacco companies during this time period. The photograph offers us a glimpse into history, transporting us back to early 1900s Washington D. C. , where passionate fans cheered for their beloved team at every game. It is through images like these that we can appreciate not only the talent and dedication of individual athletes but also the cultural significance of sports in shaping our nation's identity. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder of how artistry combined with commercial interests can create lasting impressions that transcend time.
