Default Keep on Truckin

Here's a group of postcards of PCL Hall of Fame catcher James "Truck" Hannah, spanning most of his illustrious career as a player and manager:

1911 Butte Miners (Union Association)
1912-13 Chattanooga Lookouts (Southern Association)
1918-1920 NY Yankees, Cyanotype (AL)
1930s LA Angels (PCL)

Also, his 1910 release from the Western Canada League Calgary Bronchos, written on the back of a Dugdale's Billiard Parlor slip, and signed by Calgary skipper Bill Carney. Carney's major league career consisted of two games with the 1904 Chicago Cubs.
