EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant print captures the essence of Hal Chase, a prominent baseball player from Chase, New York. Taken during the early 20th century by the American Tobacco Company as part of their White Border series (T206), this image showcases Chase in his prime as a member of the New York Highlanders and later the New York Yankees. Hal Chase's confident demeanor is evident in this portrait, with his slicked-back hair and middle parting adding to his charismatic appeal. The pink background adds an unexpected pop of color, making this photograph truly stand out. As one of America's favorite pastimes, baseball holds a special place in our country's heritage. This lithograph perfectly encapsulates that sentiment, serving as both a piece of art and a testament to sportsmanship. Displayed proudly at The Met museum, this trade card offers viewers a glimpse into America's sporting history. It serves as a reminder not only of Hal Chase's contributions to the game but also highlights how baseball has become ingrained in our nation's culture. The American Tobacco Company expertly captured every detail through lithography and printing techniques, resulting in an image that exudes nostalgia for fans and collectors alike. With its white border framing the scene, it transports us back to an era when baseball was king.
