Sockalexis' doings after his time in "Organized Ball" are not well documented. It may have been that he was simply hired for a time as a coach (or ringer) of some kind. It is obviously a real divided back (1907 or later) postcard. I have read every biography of Sockalexis ever written and the last decade of his life is usually painted with a broad brush as there isn't much written from the time to go by in newspapers, contemporary accounts, etc., etc.
