Here are two postcards I got in the mail today. I believe both are ca. 1912. The first one shows a shortstop wearing an Athletics jersey, and I believe it depicts Jack Barry, a member of Connie Mack's "$100,000 infield." The handwriting on the back reads, "I see you got a triple yesterday, keep up the good work." The second postcard shows Jim Thorpe, "The Greatest Athlete of All Times." The writing on the back says, "Sara Dean Lee, Mattie Ziegler, Bill Durfee?, Mr. Hunt?, and myself were there. Baseball game between Chambersburg and Carlisle, 14 innings, 2-1 in favor of Carlisle."
