Posted By: <b>MikePugeda</b><p>Thanks Joe,<br><br>Did you pick up your Pirates PC at the Reading show last year? I think I remember seein it there on a Friday night (but couldn't pull the trigger) and when I came back on Sat. it was gone. I've always liked that PC and yours is one of the nicest I have seen.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Prizner</b><p>Nice AL Pub. PC Rhett (and Mike amd Jeff)! Is yours trimmed on top? Do you know if all the ad front / schedule back variations came from the same source? This is the 3rd I've recently seen and all three look like they are trimmed on top.

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Not mind-blowing, but still pretty cool. Alta Weiss was a pitcher that played semi-pro for a short while. Here she is with a barnstorming team - she was the pitcher and routinely pitched against the guys. Unsurprisingly, she was more of a pitcher than a thrower <img src="/images/happy.gif" height="14" width="14" alt="happy.gif"><br><br>This is from 1908, and the reverse is neat because it advertises one of the games that year. Note the female in back row center - her sister maybe? - but obviously some kind of chaperone.<br><br>I'm not sure how this was used - clearly the back printing makes it unusable as a postcard. The back looks printed, not stamped, so I'm not sure why they would have used a post card as stock.<br><br>Someday I'm going to write the definitive history of women in baseball at the turn of the century. Sounds like a nice travel-researchy way to spend retirement, doesn't it?<br><br>J<br><br><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1234639351.JPG" alt="[linked image]"> <br><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1234639374.JPG" alt="[linked image]">
