My one and only........

Postcards
 

Thanks Jeff!!! Yes, there was one notably absent PC from your original post! This will probably be the best pick-up for me for the entire year!

All the best, Derek

So Many Beauties
 

It's hard for me to even say that my favs are Jeff's Crawford ready for the ball, Jim's Maranville Day and Bosox arriving, Brad's lefty grove - because they're all really interesting, tougher cards. Great thread.

Btw- Steve - who are the players with the auto?

Here's a few of mine......

1. The back tells us the picture was taken July 4th 1914 in Arnegard, North Dakota. Town founded in 1913. Population in the 2010 census, 115.

2. I never took the time to research this one. AZO and Undivided back. Maybe taken abroad on an Army base during WWI?

3/4. I think this is the only card in the Red Belt series that I have seen produced in a different way. (jimmy Collins sliding)

5. Hilltop Park. A Thaddeus Wilkerson card. A toughie. He took photos of NYC and privately produced into PC's. I live a couple miles away from where the Highlanders used to play and every so often take a walk around where the field was and reminisce.

Hope you enjoy. Really great cards guys.

Great postcards!

Here's my lone example. Back to back to back 20 game winner Frank Owen on the hill for the first pitch ever thrown at Swayne field while a member of the Toledo Mudhens. I'm pretty sure somewhere in the infield is HOFer Joe McCarthy who spent the 1909 season with Toledo.

You just show that Cobb off whenever you get a chance.:)

Great postcard. Love it.

It's also the only image of Ty Cobb that makes me think of Godzilla. Oh wait a sec maybe..... nope just this one.

Here's one of my favorite RPPCs:

Always looking for Wagner PC's.
