If you want to get you "foot in the door" on the early postcard sets perhaps the most affordable & available of all the early sets is the 1907 Dietsche Detroit Tigers postcards. That is the first set I aquired when I began to have an interest in the various postcard sets.

thanks i have seen these cards and they are really nice. Do you have any tips to look for when buying them what to look for?

I would recommend Dietsche postcards as well. The 1907 Tiger set is readily available and with the exception of Ty Cobb, readily affordable as well. The other 1907 Wolverines and HM Taylor are pretty attractive too.

One of the nice thing about postcards is that trimming doesn't seem to be as much of an issue.

If you want to add a couple of MLB team postcards to your early collection, both of the Chicago (AL) & (NL) teams from 1906 are pretty readily available as well.
