This lot features the popular 1911 T201 Mecca Double Folder baseball card set. The 1911 T201 Mecca Double Folders set was one of the more unique pre-war cards in terms of design. Instead of featuring one player, the double folders cards included two. In addition, the cards were designed with a factory-made fold. When fully opened, one full-length player would be seen. When folded down, the bottom portion of the original picture would still be seen but the reverse of the top would fold down over the previous top, creating a new player. Several of the pairings in the set feature two key players and are, as a result, even more desirable. The card includes some pricey big name guys like Ty Cobb and Christy Mathewson. But its small size makes it a reasonable set pursuit.

Most cards included one star and one lesser player. But a handful included two Hall of Famers, such as the cards featuring Sam Crawford/Ty Cobb, Johnny Evers/Frank Chance, Eddie Collins/Home Run Baker, and Miller Huggins/Roger Bresnahan. The cards have remained in remarkably nice condition considering the fact that they were produced 112 years ago.
