The Orioles have issued postcards since 1954. The earliest ones were B&W and mostly used for autograph requests through the mail. Often you find them autographed and postmarked through the mail. While postmarks on the back can add to the postcard, I hate when they are stamped on the front photo. They measure 3.25" x 5.5" and the backs are blank.
Here are the postcards issued from 1957-59. Since the style is the same, it's often difficult to identify exact years for players that played multiple years. Postcard collectors identify these by year range.
Here are all the postcards and known variations. I have 66 out of 72. Included are the first postcards of Brooks Robinson. I'm still missing the following - Joe Durham, Bert Hamric, Billy Loes (3rd variation), Al Pilarcik (Name in small print), Arnold Portocarrero (Name in small print), and Bill Wight. A Jack Harshman upgrade would be nice also.
