Could use some help identifying the uniform - I think it's 1900-1918 based on the stamp box on the back of the postcard. It looks similar to a Cleveland Naps logo but different. I know they used different logos but haven't seen this one in my uneducated research.

Any ideas? Help greatly appreciated!!

Great image on the postcard. I can't help on the identification, but the team emblem lead me to think of that great ballplayer Euler (even though it's almost assurely a "c" and not an "e")

Take a look at the cheap wood bench they are sitting on with cement hollow blocks or something, and it looks like it is right next to the fans with no dugout. Also the cheap chickenwire behind them. This is definately a small town team with very limited funds.

Thanks for the help and that great reference site!

I like old baseball postcards and couldn't resist that one.

I certainly never thought that I would see that equation on this forum... Too funny.... What's next? A lesson on Generalized Functions?

We could lobby Leon for an Advanced Mathematics discussion forum!
