1913 Fatima Cleveland Naps Baseball Card


This post is partially related to the Ray Chapman post.

This card was issued in 1913. 16 cards in total were issued. One card for each Major League team.

Shoeless Joe Jackson is standing second from left on the card.

Napoleon Lajoie is seated in the first row all the way to the right. Lajoie is who the Cleveland team was named after at the time.

Ray Chapman is in the middle row, second from right. Chapman was killed by a pitch thrown by Carl Mays in 1920. Ray Chapman is buried in Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland Ohio.
