RPPC Saint Paul Saints
 

I know it’s a major stretch but picked up this RPPC of a team with the letters SP on it. I found it in an antique mall in Wisconsin and was wondering if it could be the St. Paul Saints. I liked it because it’s an early integrated baseball team and looks like a pro or semi pro team plus it was cheap. Any thoughts to time period and possible players or team ID.

Sorry about photos being sideways. Uploaded from my phone.

Sorry, not the Saints. Is there a cancellation date on the back?

Chris,
Your ears must have been burning. That didn’t take you long to respond.

Thanks guys. I thought that was the case. No cancellation date on back. It’s postally unused and pulled from a scrapbook. I’m guessing from the 20’s based on similar postcards from the period that I have. I was intrigued by it being an integrated team from this period.

:D Just checking in during lunch.

SP stands for "State Prison"

There are quite a few of these integrated postcards that pop up from time to time, not 100% positive but I believe this to be a prison team photo.

Here are some of the prison types.. The bottom one is a stray in the sequence, not prison related.
