The oversized M101-6 cards issued between 1917 and 1920 by publisher Felix Mendelsohn are among the most beautiful photographic cards of their era. Measuring 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" the cards have long been scarce but demand has increased exponentially in recent years likely due to the advent of grading company holders large enough to accommodate the cards. Though complete sets were advertised in the Sporting News at 100 cards for $5 more than 110 different subjects have now been confirmed along with several team variations. Today Hall of Famers from the issue are in particularly high demand. Chicago Cubs variation of the Grover Cleveland Alexander card graded GOOD+ 2.5 by SGC exhibits some slight wear consistent with the grade most notably surface wear. Still the image quality is strong a tough card from a desirable issue.
