For your viewing pleasure is one of the most fascinating and oddest postcards I have come across. An advertising postcard for Moroney's Army and Navy Whiskey featuring Jimmy Moroney. I have rarely seen alcohol related cards from the Deadball Era.

Moroney only played for the Phillies in 1910 so the postcard must be from that year. It is slightly oversized.

Has anyone seen this postcard before? Any further information on it?

Very cool card.

Interesting about Moroney now being in the church wine business.

That is a wonderful postcard. I looked through the entire baseball section of the Sports Postcard Price Guide but I could not find it listed in there.

I immediately got interested when I saw there might be a hard-copy guide available for a neophyte like me- so I jumped to Amazon, but the 'Comprehensive' guide they had was reviewed as woefully inadequate with regards to Baseball postcards.

Could you tell me where I can find one that IS adequate?

Thanks,
