Are you familiar with baseball cards? Peck & Snyder invented baseball cards in the 1860s and they were a company from New York. In the 1880’s, baseball cards were sold in packs of cigarettes. Kids also traded them for fun. The first team to play baseball was the Cincinnati Red Stockings. They started playing in 1869.
