Size of Cards

The standard-sized cards are the following dimensions: 2-1/2" by 3-1/2"

Basic Features

Food cards from the early twentieth century to the present have a devoted following among collectors. This is only one of hundreds of strange sets available. There are some weird sets that are extremely difficult to obtain or extremely rare, but not this one.

Baseball cards have been packed as a promotional component in food products for decades. Drake's Bakery decided to try to capitalize on Hostess' popularity with baseball cards and baked products in 1981.

The front of the cards had a unique design with the player's and team's names prominently displayed, as well as Drake's emblem. With a blue border and action photographs of the athletes, as well as facsimile autographs, this card is a must-have for collecter of food cards.

On the reverse of the cards, the Topps partnership was readily apparent. In a red box on top with what makes a big hitter, a Drake's logo, number on card, under that a player's bio and data can be found.

1989 Perez Steele Celebration set

Size of Cards

The size of the post cards are 3-1/2" by 5-1/2"

Basic Features

The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum is celebrating its 50th anniversary, and this set features artwork by artist Dick Perez. The backs of the cards are in postcard style. A gorgeous painting of an all-time great Cubs player graces the front of the post card. It's Perez's best work to date, in my opinion. The reverse features a post card back and is numbered up to 10,000. The player's name and the date of their induction into the hall of fame are included on the cards.

You can acquire the players' autographs on these. If you're interested in collecting one, be sure it's been graded by a respected company.
