Not Post-war and well not even a card in the normal sense - but interesting none the less. Sorry coudn't resist....

From SCP Auctons....

This rare 1914 Detroit Tigers team panoramic photograph features the legendary Ty Cobb, not once, but twice. Cobb was in his prime, and therefore able to outrace the photographer as he panned from one end of the player lineup to the other. In the old days when this photo was taken, it was necessary for the players to stand still for several seconds as the exposure was completed. This allowed for Cobb to be captured at one end of the picture when the camera shutter opened and sprint behind the camera to the other end before the camera caught up with him. Thus, he appears in the photo twice.
