Need help identifying postcard of Owen Bush
 
2 Attachment(s)
I picked up this postcard at the National last week, and don't know who produced it. Bush played for the Indianapolis Indians of the American Association (owned by the Detroit Tigers) in 1908, and made his debut with the Tigers on September 18, 1908. The pc is postmarked Sept. 15, 1908 so I assume the card is a regional Indianapolis issue distributed before he got to the bigs.

Does anyone have any information on this issue? I appreciate any help you can provide.

Cheers, Mike

Mike:

It is one of a dozen or so Indianapolis Indians postcards issued in 1908. I have the Rube Marquard from that set.

Thanks, Phil. Can you post a scan of your Marquard, or send one to me at: mpeich@comcast.net? Many thanks.

Cheers, Mike

Thanks, Phil. Re the Bush--it is a small world, eh?!

Cheers, Mike
