Frank WakefieldI don't think that arrow points to where the Bud sign is. For starters, the Bud sign is at Wrigley Field. Wrigley opened in 1914, as the home park for Bill Weegham's Chicago Whales. I think it was called Weegham Field. After the 1915 season, Weegham bought the Cubs as the Federal League folded, he combined his Whales players with his Cubs players, keeeping the best, to make the 1916 Cubs of the National League. I think the park was still called Weegham Field until Wrigley bought the park and the Cubs.
Point is, the place where the Cubs played the World Series in 1908 was torn down in the mid teens, I think, and where the Bud sign is now is nowhere near that arrow.
Still, it is a great post card!
