Similar views of 1930s Davenport, Iowa, and its multi-sport ballpark on the banks of the Mississippi. These days, the Davenport park hosts baseball alone and added protection from recurring high waters. Note it retains that squared-off left field edge, echoing the former football end zone.

Earle Combs (HOF) - Eastern Kentucky State Normal School
Earle Combs (HOF) - Postcard of the 1918 baseball team for the Eastern Kentucky State Normal School (today, it is Eastern Kentucky University). Combs originally intended to become a school teacher. He is in the back row at the far right.
In the Major Leagues, he accumulated a .325 lifetime batting average in 12 seasons with the fabled New York Yankees of Ruth and Gehrig. He was the leadoff hitter and played centerfield where he was succeeded by Joe DiMaggio. Last edited by rickalaska; 04-04-2024 at 07:54 PM. |

Yes correct…. There is also the team card along with some rare foldout postcards. I’ve had them for a long time and realized they have never been shown in this popular thread.
