The 1921 Exhibits issue is the first in several decades of postcard-sized baseball cards, primarily sold in penny arcade vending machines.  The cards feature black and white photos, the 64-card set including four players from each of the 16 major league teams.  While some of the cards have white borders, others do not, though all have blank backs.  This auction includes an assortment of 1921 Exhibits, some graded and consigned from the collection of a long-time hobbyist, and others fresh to the hobby from a family collection.
