Tobbaco producer W. Duke Sons & Company produced a variety of comical baseball and non-sports issues in the late 1800s and early 1900s, with one of the most popular issues being the 1888 N154 Presidential baseball card set. Cards from the N154 set feature the four Presidential/Vice Presidential candidates from each party in the 1888 race – Grover Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison, Levi Morton, and Allen Thurman, with their real photo heads placed upon the bodies of other baseball images to create fictional players.

Offered is the Benjamin Harrison Batting pose, with the words "The Presidential BB Club" below. Crystal clear image, light spotting on reverse with small pinhole at top. 

Graded by PSA PR 1 due to the pinhole, otherwise VG.
