On the face of the cards was a glossy photo of the player set against a vignette. The player's name, as well as his position and team, appeared in boldface type underneath. Each card's reverse featured a miniature baseball with the words "Genuine Baseball Photo" and the card number written on it.

These baseball cards come with a marble instead of chewing gum, which was unusual at the time.
