Some Hall of Famer's are harder to find than others. Since I didnt figure that I would ever stumble across the Morgan Bulkeley true rookie 'card' (1870's Mathew Brady Cabinet 1 of 1), I thought I would settle for this. Unbelievably, I found this on ebay for a rather bargain price.
It is a 1908 George Wright postcard of Bulkeley long after he was the first president of the National League, and by this point a US Senator and President of the Bridge Commission. Old Cardboard lists this as his (B) rookie card, but I see it as his only 'card' actually obtainable that was issued while he was still living. OC shows a card very similar to this as their image. Apparently there were variations.
The post card is postmarked Oct 3, 1908, three days before the start of the Hartford Bridge dedication, which is the purpose for this card.
