The real photo postcard has quite a few guys there that made the major leagues at some point, but there are no real stars. Roy Ellam is pictured on a T206 card and I'm guessing the Mulvey up top there is Emmett Mulvey who had a long minor league career, but did not make the major leagues. I think it's a great little lot of minor league items. I would guess you got somewhere in the $100-$150 range if you find a Mobile/Alabama/Southern Association minor league collector.

edited to add - a little further research has found that Manuel Cueto is also on the postcard and so is Jose Acosta - two Cubans who had spent time in the major leagues. That should add value to the postcard.
