A few days ago, we were discussing various postcards issued by people like JD McCarthy, Mel Bailey and Don Wingfield. You can add James Elder to that list. He was from Florida did a set of 1400 postcards that he sold individually and as sets. I believe he even offered them to players to use for autograph requests, although I don't have any that have gone through the mail. Here's an older post that talks a little about James Elder.

There are 30 or 31 Orioles depending on your definition. One player, Frank Sigafoos, appears in a Baltimore Oriole uniform while they were a minor league team before 1954. It's an interesting mix of players & coaches. Most are them are not household names. In my opinion, the postcards are very well done and can easily be identified by the numbers stamped on back. I've been trying to complete the set of 30 Orioles for many years and still need four. I think I've only added one new postcard to the set in five years. They don't seem to show up that often, but still can be had in the $20 range when available.
