So, the other day I got into this whole thing about baseball cards. My nephew’s starting to collect them, and he asked me how big they’re supposed to be. Honestly, I had no clue! I mean, I remember having some as a kid, but I never really paid attention to the size.
So, first thing I did was grab a few of his cards. I rummaged through the box, just to get a feel for them. They all seemed pretty much the same size, but I needed to be sure.
Then I jumped online, you know, just did a quick search. And what I found was pretty straightforward. Turns out, most modern baseball cards are a standard size.
Standard Baseball Card Size
- Width: 2.5 inches
- Height: 3.5 inches
I grabbed a ruler and measured a couple of the cards, and yep, they were spot on – 2.5 by 3.5 inches. It’s like there’s this unwritten rule, and everyone follows it.
I also saw Some older ones are a bit different, though. From the 1930,they say 2.375″ x 3.5″.Smaller width,I * who cares about the old cards? My nephew only want those new ones.
Anyway I told my nephew the * seems * solved!
