Arcade cards were first created by the Exhibit Supply Company of Chicago, IL, in 1901 and ended in 1981. The cards were 3 3/8"x 5" and featured promotional photos of movie stars, prize fighters, baseball players, and cowboy-western stars. They were first printed in black & white (as seen above) and finally in color lithography. The Exhibit Supply Co., of Chicago Illinois, is a well known name amongst trading card collectors for its early postcard-sized cards depicting everything from athletes to Hollywood celebrities.
