Description: RARE 1909 1910 1911 1913 Buffalo Bisons Baseball Scrapbook Set. Hundreds of clipped newspaper articles with photos. Four volumes of a scrapbook collection using school textbooks and a school notebook as the base. The landmark T-206 baseball card set featured eleven Bisons from this time period. Cards shown in photos are not included in this sale. T206 is a tobacco card set issued from 1909 to 1911 in cigarette and loose tobacco packs through 16 different brands owned by the American Tobacco Company. It is a landmark set in the history of baseball card collecting, due to its size and rarity, and the quality of its color lithographs. The first professional team to play in Buffalo began in 1877 as a member of the League Alliance; this team was invited to become a major league club, the Buffalo Bisons of the National League, and played from 1879 to 1885. In 1886, the Bisons moved into minor league baseball as members of the original International League, then known as the Eastern League. (An "outlaw" team also known as the Buffalo Bisons played in the Players' League, an upstart third major league, in 1890, but that team is not considered part of the Bisons history.) This team joined the Western League in 1899, and was within weeks of becoming a major league team when the Western League announced it was becoming a major league and changing its name to the American League in 1900. However, by the start of the 1901 season, Buffalo had been bumped from the league in favor of the Boston Americans; the Bisons returned to the minors and the Eastern League that year.
