1894 Mayo Cut Plug Neilson Poe football cardYesterday I added 1894 Mayo Cut Plug cards to the Vintage Football Card Gallery. Goodwin and Co. Auctions recently auctioned off the “Anonymous” card and the rest of the set, and they kindly allowed me to use their scans. Thanks, Bill!

Pictured here is the card of Princeton’s Neilson Poe, a relative of Edgar Allan Poe. See M is for Mayo Cut Plug for a short description of the set and links to other sites.

    Now THAT’S vintage. In fact, you can’t get any more vintage in football if my memory serves correctly.

    I really like this set. I’m not sure if I’ll ever own part or all of the set, but it is a beaut.
