That's a good possibility, Paul. I considered that until I found the reverse image on the internet on another postcard where that individual is much more clearly pictured. Then, it was obvious that it was not Foster. The other thing that did not make sense was that the postcard had to be produced after March, 1907 based on the divided back and Foster's only season with the CUG was 1902. I have never seen a Negro League postcard printed several years later picturing an earlier team although it has happened with MLB teams from the 1890's and printed in the early 1900's.
