Help Identifying 1931 Tour of Japan Postcard...
 
1 Attachment(s)
Can anybody identify this 1931 Tour of Japan postcard? It measures 3 3/8 by 5 3/8 inches. The image of the actual postcard is crisp. The picture that I took with my phone is not as crisp as the postcard itself. I have seen similar Japanese postcards with the white numbers in the lower left corner. I have a team picture numbered "14" that is labeled as GTSun bromide on my computer and another picture with the number "9" of Lefty that is labeled as Yomiuri Shimbun on my computer. The Yomiuri Shimbun postcard has Japanese writing at the bottom of the back. I believe that the GTSun bromide has a blank back.

I wonder if the Grove card is from the same set as these two team pictures.

Thanks for your responses. I have the "14" team picture. I am guessing that they are from the same set as my "6" postcard of Lefty. I would probably tend to trust what Prestige Collectibles have to say over what PSA has to say. I have never heard of the 1931 Sport News set.

PSA probably means the Herb Hunter led tour in 1931, IIRC was sponsored by the Sporting News.

I think Grove only went to the 1931 tour.
