I do understand that even though Walter didn't have a great record his very first years in WA he was still a great pitcher at that time. His team, not so great. |
I think that's very sound.
As to the point made by a poster about the white on the front of the postcard dating it to a certain era, that's just not the case. It just has to do with a certain aspect ratio image being used and not cropping it to fit on the postcard. You see it on this postcard as well which I date to around 1913-1914 (no earlier).
