Default Need Help Identifying a Card

Posted By: Dan Mathewson

I won this card recently at an eBay auction. The seller described it thus:

Christy Mathewson -- Pinkerton Type Photo Postcard.
Similar to T5 Pinkerton but not mounted on cabinet back. Reverse is blank. It measures 84mm x 139mm. I understand these might have been made a little later than the original Pinkertons, possibly around 1918. This card is numbered 251.

I was going to try to get a scan of it on here, but I don't even see that option on here anymore. The acution maybe up a little longer, here is the link.

Does anyone here have any idea what this really is? I have done some research, but I can't come up with the actual card or issue. I'm quite curious. Thanks.
