I ran into a nugget about the series of 1951 "The Cardinals Introduce" postcards in an old Sporting News.

I'd like to post something on my blog (and here), but would like to illustrate it with an example, preferably in the horizontal format and preferably Solly Hemus.

Can anybody send me a scan of one of these cards? You can email to scbcguy "at" yahoo.com.

Thanks much!

Thanks, Frank. Your Miggins image may be the only one I get. I'll credit you on the blog post.

I always wanted to catalog the Cardinals PCs, but in the pre-internet days it was too daunting.
