See the Man Catch the Ball Trade Card Overview
This trade card included a unique optical illusion.
Pictured was a baseball player readying to catch a ball. Readers of the card were instructed to bring the card closer to their face. As they did, the ball would slowly move towards the man who would ‘catch’ it.
Other optical illusion trade cards like this existed and others were baseball-related, too. One such card was the Phantom Baseball trade card.
While the card shown here is printed in black and white, noted trade card expert Frank Keetz states that there is a color version as well.
