Ullman Postcards

This is another one of those cards that I am going to regret not buying -- an Ullman TEAM postcard of the CUBS.

Though you can't tell from the scan, the seller told me that the name plate at the bottom has the words "National League Champs 1906" in it. Someone then wrote "1906" over the name plate.

Have any of you ever seen anything like this before? All other catalogued Ullman's are individual players, and all are from the World Champion Giants. It seems to me there are a few possibilities here:

1. Ullman made individual player cards of the World Champion Giants, but decided that the team which lost the World Series merited only a single team card.

2. Ullman also made a team card of the Giants, but it has never been found.

3. Ullman made a Giants team card that has never been found and individual Cub cards that have never been found.

I'm kind of leaning toward No. 3. Any thoughts?
