Here are my three favorites.

|
||||
|

The "Thorpe Returns to Carlisle" postcard of him putting the shot always seemed very cool to me as well. I know there was a raw copy that sold on eBay about a year ago, but that postcard does seem slightly more rare than the Thorpe at the 1912 Olympics postcard from earlier in the thread.

Jeff - nice grab! Sorry I bid you up.
My most recent PC pick-up is not pre-war, but it's not too common either - it's a '75 Cleveland Indians Postcards Update of Mr. Eckersley:

That is a very cool card. I really enjoy the elephant design. They don't make things like this any more and I think that's a mistake. Sent using Tapatalk

Here are a couple of fantastic postcards I got today. The first is a 1941 Real Photo Postcard that includes a very young Bob Feller. The second is an autographed 1956 Pittsburgh Pirates Team Issued Postcard of Bill Mazeroski. Thanks for the Maz PC Andrew!

Great pick-ups. Happy to know a '56 cancel date exists to confirm that mine was issued in '56 as well. You know where to turn if you want a "nicer" example

If only that card was in walking distance of your residence Bicem, that might even be cooler.

Keep on Truckin
Here's a group of postcards of PCL Hall of Fame catcher James "Truck" Hannah, spanning most of his illustrious career as a player and manager:
1911 Butte Miners (Union Association) 1912-13 Chattanooga Lookouts (Southern Association) 1918-1920 NY Yankees, Cyanotype (AL) 1930s LA Angels (PCL) Also, his 1910 release from the Western Canada League Calgary Bronchos, written on the back of a Dugdale's Billiard Parlor slip, and signed by Calgary skipper Bill Carney. Carney's major league career consisted of two games with the 1904 Chicago Cubs. Last edited by seattlerainiers; 05-25-2014 at 10:59 AM. Reason: Grammar |

Jack Warhop
Here are a few RPPCs of hard-luck pitcher Jack "Crab" Warhop, at the beginning of his professional career with the 1906-1907 Wisconsin State League Freeport Pretzels.
Warhop went 82-20 in three minor league seasons from 1906-1908, leading to his 8 year career with the NY Highlanders/Yankees,1908-1915. 18 year professional baseball career notwithstanding, Warhop is most remembered for giving up Babe Ruth's first two major league home runs. |
#277

|

Warhop also played for the Nebraska Indians...I have yet to locate him in one of my images though.

Johnny Kling's Pennant Cafe, 1911-1918
Chicago Cubs catcher Johnny Kling had a restaurant and bar called the Pennant Cafe from 1911-1918 in the basement of the Sexton Hotel (later called the Dixon Hotel) in Kansas City, Missouri. As seen in this 1911 era trade card for the cafe, baseball bats and ball motifs adorn the pillars and the tile floor, the fixtures resemble baseballs, and baseball stadium murals grace the walls. The reverse of the trade card advertises the Sexton Hotel. For more details about the image, find it in the Unusual Baseball Postcards gallery of http://www.sportingoregon.com.

Thanks guys! Here's another beauty I picked up, a 1911 Harry Davis Day postcard. Thanks again Jeff P, I've been looking for one of these for a while.
The other postcard is a different variation of the 1907 Toronto Baseball team postcard that I own, happy to see this one show up on ebay.

If only he hadn't cut 2nd base.
Poor Fred. I hope he never saw this postcard. It's from 1908 and is among the scarcest of early hand-drawn baseball postcards. If you don't know what it's about, do a Google search for "Fred Merkle." For more, visit http://www.sportingoregon.com.

That cutting second is one of my favorites. I have never seen one before. Only in books. Is it as difficult to find as I think? |

Very difficult to find. Given the subject matter, it's easy to see how few got saved (unlike a postcard commemorating a World Series victory, for example).

Fantastic postcard! I definitely hadn't seen that one before today. Thanks for sharing!
