1908 Cubs Suhling Postcards
 
8 Attachment(s)
I came across three 1908 Suhling Chicago Cubs postcards, including two on the known checklist and one not listed. I have Artie Hoffman and Harry Steinfeldt on the list, but I also have James Sheckard not listed. Anyone help here?

I also have a Chicago Cubs Westside Bleachers Baseball postcard (before Wrigley Field) issued by Suhling. The backs match the three above.

This was part of a collection by a Chicago antique dealer.

I have a couple from that set, Reulbach and Kling. The checklist at TCDB shows Sheckard in the set. Are you interested in selling?

Love these! Vintage baseball player postcards are the best!

David - Great Suhling postcards. Sheckard is a known subject. There are 10 Cubs players and 10 from the White Sox in the set.

Thanks for the updated information, it appears the Westside Bleachers postcard looks like it is an addition to the checklist.

Bleachers
 
That Bleachers postcard could turn out to be quite valuable! Never saw it before! Thanks for sharing.

The Bleachers postcard has been connected to the set for a little while but it may not be in all published checklists. This is another reason we need a new edition of the SCD book. RIP Bob Lemke.
