Default Uncataloged 1920's Cuban postcard of Tris Speaker

Posted By: Ryan Christoff

I recently picked up this Cuban postcard of Tris Speaker and I need help dating it. A symbol in the upper left corner of the back says "Chocolate LA IMPERIAL" which is "The Imperial Chocolate" in English.

It is smaller than normal postcards from the era, which measure about 3.5" by 5.25". This one measures about 3.25" by 5".

My question is, has anyone seen this image of Speaker before and if so, what year is it from?

If no one has seen the image before, I would appreciate educated guesses by members of this board on what year it might have been produced based on how Speaker looks. I'm sure it was issued in the 1920's, but I'd like to get a more accurate date if possible.

Speaker played for Cleveland from 1916 to 1926.
