Pre-War Baseball Card Guide
Bread cards, or D-cards, began to emerge just prior to the 1910's and 1920's. These cards were inserted with biscuits, cookies, cakes, and even sliced bread. The first set was released in 1909 by the Niagara baking company and it closely resembled E-cards, or caramel cards, that were being released around the same time in much greater numbers. One of the last D-card sets was printed in 1953 for the Pacific Coast League players by the Mother's Cookies Company. |
