OLD FROG 1901 AMERICAN LEAGUE
BALTIMORE ORIOLES: Joe McGinnity HOF, Roger Bresnahan HOF, John McGraw HOF, Wilbert Robinson HOF, Steve Brodie, Jack Dunn, Mike Donlin, Jimmy Williams, Cy Seymour.
For your collecting pleasure, Old Frog is proud to present the 1901 American League 72 baseball card series, featuring 72 players (including 10 Hall of Famers) all in authentic uniforms of the original eight teams.
Every vintage style card in this set is hand cut
and "aged" by the artist, Ken Mars, so that no two will be exactly
the same. This exclusive process utilizes a mixture of ashes from a fire at
Wilbert Robinson's old house in Baltimore, a sprinkle of dirt from the site
where Babe Ruth made his professional debut in 1914, and a dash of espresso
coffee grounds.
Please see all pictures and read further for details.
All cards come in hard sleeves for your collecting
convenience.

JOHN MCGRAW TRIBUTE LIMITED EDITION 16 CARD SET
The life of Hall of Famer John McGraw, the greatest baseball manager
ever, told in 16 colorful cards. Limited edition set with special items in a
signed and numbered tin box! Unique limited edition. Going fast!
~ THE OLD FROG SECRET ~
In 1895, HOF’ers Wilbert Robinson and John McGraw bought houses next to
each other on St. Paul Street in Baltimore. A friend lived at Robinson’s
address in a first-floor apartment for several years and we spent many hours in
Robbie's old living room, but in February 2015, fire consumed the property.
McGraw's place next door was also damaged, but not nearly as bad, and both
properties have since been fixed up. When Robinson’s home was gutted, I grabbed
a large, charred piece of the mantle. Ash collected from this site was dubbed;
"Compound W." - for Wilbert. American League Park at the corner of
29th and Greenmount in Baltimore, where Babe Ruth made his professional debut
with the International League Orioles in 1914, was a long fly ball away from
where I lived for nearly 20 years. A jar of dirt from the infield area was
obtained and added to the ash from Robinson’s house, and along with a dash of
espresso grounds, this is the secret trinity of ingredients behind the
exclusive Old Frog “aging process” which gives every hand cut card a unique
patina and character. No two cards issued are identical.
~ THE OLD FROG PROMISE – Since 2016 ~
*-Every card back in this set is “aged” with the exclusive Old Frog
ingredients as described above.
*-Every card is hand cut and trimmed. Never mass produced!
*-Direct from the artist.
*-All cards come in hard sleeves for your collecting convenience.
