Purely a guess... Harry Lord. Looks like his chin.

I think Jim is right. Definitely looks like Harry Lord. Also, Lord played third base and threw right handed.

Bad low-res scan, but I don't see who else it could be on that team.

And... it's almost quadrupled in price since this was posted this morning.

Who says we don't matter?

Between Lord and Harry Steinfeldt, Chicago boasted two third basemen with chins rivaling Jay Leno. Wow.

Sorry man, I hate when that happens to me. A sincere apology from me.

I emailed this seller the first day he had this listed and told him it was a 1910 photo of Harry Lord. He thanked me and told me he thought I was right so I'm not sure why he never added the info to the auction. I also don't think that pointing this out made any difference in the end price because I saw this postcard on the "Most watched" list that ebay periodically places at the bottom of certain auctions.

I didn't bid high enough to get it. Does anybody know if it is from a set? Never seen any like this before.

It's not from a set, it was most likely taken by a fan who was down on the field during warmups before the game and had a real photo postcard made up.
