Im looking to get some cool postcards to use as birthday cards and have seen only the 1907 Diestch tigers set available. Does anybody know any other postcards sets that are available of pre ww2 baseball or for that matter birthday cards.

TCMA made a bunch of cool reprint sets of postcards back in the 1970's

Jim Rowe postcards from the 70s would be nice. I know he produced sets including the T200 Fatima team cards and others (top two, below). Also, the 1980 exhibit reprints, although not postcards, would make really good greeting cards, and they are readily available and inexpensive.

Here's some Dover reprints that are pretty inexpensive.

In 2008, collector-dealer Mike Wheat issued his own set of Deadball Era exhibit cards with postcard backs. They are very nice. He has full sets and series. There are also a few singles available. Here is the eBay link: http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=deadball+exhibit&_sacat=0&_odkw=deadball&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313

And, has been previously mentioned, TCMA (and Mike Aronstein's earlier effort, SCFC) issued some nice reprints of early Exhibits.
