The postcard-size Exhibit cards were produced by the Exhibit Supply Company out of Chicago beginning in 1921 and were the first cards issued that weren't actually an advertisement or included with a product such as tobacco, candy or gum. They could be purchased from vending machines placed in penny arcades and featured boxers, movie stars and pinup girls as well as ballplayers. I've acquired a couple dozen of these throughout the years and have shown you a few throughout this thread. Here are nine more from my collection.
