Scarce and Strange!
Hi Leon,
Nice pick-up! You don't see them often and usually not with the custom ad on back. There's also one weird thing about the card: Baker is shown standing next to Dan Shaugnessy, the player for whom he was traded! Connie Mack traded Dan for Frank. So -- were they both together just for picture day? Shaugnessy later went on to become the president of the International League from 1936 to 1950. Other major leaguers also are pictured in this team shot. Robert S Last edited by VintageBall; 02-21-2011 at 02:04 PM.

Nice pick-up, Leon. I was watching that one and placed a token bid but did not seriously pursue it because I have the exact same image in the form of a cabinet card. I believe one of our board's major postcard collectors might have the postcard version but I bet it doesn't have the advertising back like yours does.
