That is exactly what my research had led me to conclude. Which is what is most confusing to me. Maybe the 1907 date is not accurate. Although I don't know why the wrong date would be featured on a period postcard. It has happened before though. The only references I found to him being involved with organized baseball after 1903 were as an umpire and as a coach at a small school that sent several players to the New England League. There was an article written as late as 1912 about him and it made no reference to him playing as recently as 1907. It could be real and there are much more educated people on this forum, could you guys weigh in as to what led you to believe it is a 1907 period postcard?
