1 print : chromolithograph with hand-color.


This chromolithograph with hand-coloring was produced by the American Tobacco Company in 1911 as a baseball card portrait of Jake Stahl of the Boston Red Sox.

The image is part of the tobacco card series that companies issued during this period, included in cigarette packages as collectible premiums. The print combined chromolithography with hand-applied color, a common production method for such cards.

Beyond what the card itself shows, no verified information about Stahl's career, the specific card series, or the circumstances of this portrait's creation has been established for this record.
