SOLD - c1910 Postcard of Eddie Roush - Oakland City Walk-Overs
 

Up for sale is the following c1910 Postcard featuring HOFer Eddie Roush as a 16-year-old in his Oakland City Walkovers uniform. This card pre-dates his 1915 Cracker Jack "rookie" card by several years. This postcard has additional appeal as it appeared in Lawrence Ritter's book "The Glory of Their Times".

Offering it here on Net54 since we have a few postcard lovers on the board. PM or email me at h2oya311@yahoo.com.

Great postcard, have never seen another outside the team card.

Is it fully accepted as Roush--since not so labeled by SGC?

Yes, it's him, although I am happy to let others chime in. There is quite a bit written about him from his time on the Oakland City Walk-Overs team from Indiana. Here's the photo used in Glory of Their Times;
