Just one of these 40 cards depicts the game of baseball - a favorite of both the Americans and Japanese. And in 1934, after Babe Ruth's barnstorming tour of the Asian country, it was only natural he would end up immortalized on one of these extremely rare, commemorative cards, all of which are NRMT. The envelope in which they are housed is EX. Other cards in the set feature nature scenes, flags, explorers, military scenes and various other images.
