Show your Deadball Era RPPCs with individual shots of MLers
 
1 Attachment(s)
I would like to see how many Real Photo Postcards (RPPCs) are out there depicting individual shots of then current or future Major Leaguers from the Deadball Era. Let's exclude those from sets that are found in the Standard Catalog and focus on ones that are possibly one of a kind items. I believe these to be rather uncommon, but post away as I hope to be proven wrong.

I'll start out with a 1905 RPPC of Pat Ragan when he was a college pitcher for Cornell College in Iowa. He pitched in the Majors from 1909 to 1919.

I know Derek has a nice 1910 Dave Bancroft which I hope he'll post here, what else is out there?

Neat postcard and subject idea depending on who shows up to the thread. Are you asking for ML'ers that are only pre-ML and RPPC? It's a great niche in and of itself. Or would it be a ML'er on a RPPC that is not categorized?

As they are likely to be scarce either way, I'll say both. The more the merrier!

He even signed it "Buck Wheat"

Al Burch (1910 Brooklyn)

Art Thomason (Cleveland Indians in 1910) Shown here with Lincoln in 1917. Also signed.

I haven't been able to figure out this guy yet, but he was friends with Bill Davidson and this was glued into the scrapbook right next to Burch and Wheat.

Still trying to figure out this guy too. Played for the 1906 Indianapolis Indians and signed the card "Will". There was a William Kelly who played on that team, but The Baseball Register doesn't know the identity of the player.

Pinkerton RPPC

This one sort of flew under the radar last night. I would have paid more but am happy I didn't have to.

Went cheap, another from the mysterious Pinkerton set of real photo cards.
