1910 Birds Series (T42/T43)
The 1910 bird series cards, particularly those within the T42 Mecca
and related sets, offer a fascinating glimpse into early
20th-century popular culture and natural history.
These cards, often distributed with tobacco products,
featured beautifully rendered illustrations of various bird species,
capturing the public's growing interest in ornithology.
The sets were produced with either white or gold borders,
and are popular with collectors. These cards are not only
valued for their aesthetic appeal and historical significance,
but also as a testament to the era's promotional practices.
The cards give a great look into what the general public was
interested in at that period of time.

Protecting and Storing your Card Collection
There are many different ways to protect, organize and store your sports cards.
Soft Sleeves
also called "penny sleeves" are the most basic protection for your cards.
Made of thin plastic, they come in packs of 100 and are very inexpensive.
Top Loads
are rigid plastic holders and a step up in protection over "soft sleeves".
Called top-loads because you place the card thru a thin opening at the top.
They come in many sizes for regular cards upto 8-1/2 x 11 for magazines and
even larger.
Screw-Down Acrylic Holders
These are sometimes used for better, more expensive cards. Small screws hold
two pieces of clear acrylic together. In a variety of sizes and thickness
that not only protect the card but can funciton as a paper weight or display
item.
There are also Single-Screw Screw-Downs that use only 1 screw to seal the holder.
They are easier to use and provide the same type of protectionas regular screwdowns
and they are also much less expensive costing as little as .30 in quantity
while 1 inch or 2 inch acrylic screw-downs can cost upto several dollars.
