I don't recognize any of the players nor the hats but a very neat item.

Chuck,

I believe it is Gettysburg College.


look at the top-most / left side person with his arm around the other guy.
See the logo on his sleeve.

It matches Gettysburg College baseball team uniform / logo on sleeve.

I think Joe is right. The guy standing in the Gettysburg photo second from right is the guy I thought might be Johnson in the one I won.

I forgot to mention....
behind the driver / a little to the left (guy in the sweater) -
you will notice a "G" on his hat - - - which is further evidence that this is Gettysburg College.

You guys are amazing... how'd you come up with Gettysburg so fast?

I did a search and got more photos...... looks like the guy in front on the postcard could be Eddie Plank's brother Ira.
