In the early 1900s, tobacco companies produced sports cards as a way of promoting their brands. Murad Tobacco, which produced Turkish tobacco products, produced these cards with college students in mind and created some of the earliest known football, basketball, and hockey cards. In addition to cards, Murad also produced silks which, like cards, were also packaged with tobacco products and provided a much more unique and distinctive item.
