Thanks guys....I find most of it on ebay. They actually rarely played games in Nebraska during the postcard era. Most of their travel was in the Northeast and Central parts of the US...When Guy Green sold the team they started playing most of their games around Nebraska, but the new owners were not as good at marketing the team as Green was so they didn't sell many postcards or other items. These photos originated in Wisconsin...one of them has the name P. Hardeson on the back, but I've never found that name associated with the team.

Ricky, I used to bid on all Nebraska Indians items even if I already had it and since I stopped doing that the prices have come down. Postcards that used to sell for $75-$100 now sell for less than $50. I will only bid now if it's a significant upgrade or it's something I don't have. I still think it's an underrated and virtually unexplored era of baseball collecting...the Nebraska Indians were a big attraction during their era, but have been almost forgotten today. Nobody I ever talk to about them locally had ever heard of them before I told them.

I have my NI collection online here: http://s22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...seball%20Team/
