Default Uh, postcard experts, a little help please......

So, the other night I saw a couple postcards the piqued my interest. The first one I got blown out on:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ORIGINAL-191...vip=true&rt=nc

Still, I had one more that I liked and that one I won. If this isn't authentic, someone went through a lot of trouble. The name "Pete" had me concerned in the upper left corner, but player #3 overrode my concerns and the price was right either way. The guy was right on one point. He was a White Sox player, but his name wasn't Ferguson. If this postcard is from the earlier 1920s and its authentic, it's very interesting (thank you, Artie Johnson for this wonderful line from Laugh In). Some Quebec fans had to have had a chuckle when this guy came back under another name:
