This is an interesting thread, and I welcome the suggestion of determining which of the Pinkerton postcards we own. I picked up three this week-end at Ft. Washington:
Mack #505 (scorecard back)
King Cole #203 (scorecard back)
Mike Mitchell #424 (plain back, with handwritten date of March 1, 1914).

If no one else is interested, I'd be happy to compile a list that we can later send to Bob Lemke, and circulate among ourselves. We should include the following information:
1. Name, number, and team
2. Type of back: scorecard, plain, postcard (does anyone have one of these?)
3. Any dates like a postmark, jersey type, team played for, etc.
4. Any other data?

Once we agree on the information we wish to include, you can send me data offline at mpeich@comcast.net. I'll construct a database, and we'll see how many cards, beyond the four in SCBC, we can discover. Thanks to all for suggesting this information collection. I look forward to hearing from everyone.

Cheers, Mike
