Default very neat postcards

Both of those are real nice. I wonder when the Evers-Griffith photo was taken. Seems it had to be a Spring Training game from 1915 or maybe 1914--hard to imagine what riled the Crab in such a who-cares setting. Pretty cool to have the addressee depicted in the photo. I bet he got a real hoot, kick or whatever it is that word the author used out of seeing himself in his mail.
