T200 Fatima Type| Baseball card Company| Liggett & Myers Co.[1] Country| United States Availability| 1913–1913 Features| MLB teams T200, also known as Fatima Team Cards, were a type of cigarette card issued in 1913 by the Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company (L&M) through the Fatima cigarette brand. The set featured photos of professional baseball teams. The 'T200' designation comes from the American Card Catalogue, an authoritative guide to trading cards issued prior to 1951. (In other words, before the Topps company began to dominate the industry) ## Contents * 1 Overview * 2 Checklist * 2.1 American League * 2.2 National League * 3 References ## Overview[edit] An example of T200 Fatima card featuring the Pittsburgh Nationals team The set features a total of 16 cards measuring 2-5/8 inches x 4-3/4 inches. Each card featured a group photograph of Major League Baseball teams, with all of the 16 teams in the major leagues (American and National by then) included in the collection.[2] The 369 players, managers and mascots pictured include 33 Hall of Famers inductees, such as Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Christy Mathewson, and Tris Speaker. Unlike other tobacco card sets, T200 cards were printed on glossy paper. All of the players are identified by their last names. Back of the cards detailed how to obtain the larger-sized cards (measure 13" x 21"), referred by the collectors as "T200 Premiums". The standard/small cards were included inside Fatima cigarette tins while the larger versions were mailed to customers who had sent 40 Fatima coupons, with the team they chose. Those larger cards were identical to the smaller ones except they did not feature the Fatima advetising on their front, and the backs were blank.[2] Like other tobacco sets, such as the famous T205 and T206 issues, T200's were not numbered. Checklists generally list the cards alphabetically by the team. ## Checklist[edit] Teams featured on the 16 cards included (card were not numbered):[3] ### American League[edit] * Boston Red Sox * Chicago White Sox * Cleveland Guardians * Detroit Tigers * New York Yankees * Philadelphia Athletics * St. Louis Browns * Washington Senators ### National League[edit] * Boston Braves * Brooklyn Dodgers * Chicago Cubs * Cincinnati Reds * New York Mets * Philadelphia Phillies * Pittsburgh Pirates * St. Louis Cardinals | ## References[edit] Wikimedia Commons has media related to T200 Fatima. 1. ^ Marketed through its brand 'Fatima' cigarettes 2. ^ a b 1913 T200 Fatima on CardBoardConnection 3. ^ Chuck Paris' T200 collector site * v * t * e Sports cards Sports| * American football * Association football * Australian football * Baseball * Basketball * Ice hockey * Rugby Series| | Baseball| * All-Star Rookie team * All-Star Rookie list * Baseball menko * Baseball Talk * T200 Fatima * T201 * T202 * T205 * T206 * Honus Wagner * T213 * Topps sets * Yankee Stadium Legacy * W711-2 | Cricket| * Will's 1928 set Ice hockey| * Power Players Manufacturers| * Allen & Ginter * American Tobacco * British American Tobacco * Bowman * Capstan * Churchman's * Donruss * Fleer * Futera * Gallaher Group * Godfrey Phillips * Goodwin * Goudey * Imperial Tobacco Canada * ITG * John Player & Sons * Lambert & Butler * Leaf (1940) * Leaf (2010) * Lorillard * O-Pee-Chee * Panini * Parkhurst * Philadelphia * Pinnacle * Pro Set * Razor * SkyBox * Sniders & Abrahams * Topps * Upper Deck * Wills * Wizards of the Coast People| * James Beckett * Sy Berger * Jefferson Burdick * Woody Gelman * Dick Perez Media| * The American Card Catalog * Baseball Card Adventures * Baseball Hobby News * Beckett Media * The Great American Baseball Card Book * Sports Collectors Digest * Tuff Stuff Related| * Error card * Insert card * Jersey cards * List of most expensive sports cards * Refractor card * Rookie card General topics| * Cigarette card * Trading card *[v]: View this template *[t]: Discuss this template *[e]: Edit this template
