Harry Niles appears here as an outfielder, one of the players whose portraits the American Tobacco Company printed on its T3 "Turkey Red" cabinet cards around 1911. The set was a tobacco-company premium, meant to be collected and kept, and it gave early baseball fans a rare chance to see the faces of players they had only read about. Cards like this one are now valued for their small, sharply drawn portraits and for the way they preserve the look of the game's stars and bench players in the years before modern card production. Niles is a less familiar name than the set's headliners, which makes his card a useful window onto the wider roster of that era.
