Did a little research on this one! Postcard has an AZO stamp box with 4 squares, and by looking at the cars and games against the Phillies listed on the marquee (June 4-5-6) I'm comfortable saying this is a 1938 RPPC.

Here's an awesome postcard I scooped up from ebay a couple of weeks ago. It's a 1910 RPPC of William "Bill" Lange (Chicago Colts Center Fielder 1893-1899). Did some research on how he ended up in this sweet ride and I found this explanation:
"Chicago Daily News photos of the now 39-year-old Lange show him in fit physical condition, belying reports that Lange’s weight had ballooned to over 300 pounds. In appreciation for his service to the earlier Chicago club, Cubs fans took up subscriptions that resulted in a handsome Chalmers touring car later being presented to Lange." Also, he used this postcard to advertise his Real Estate & Insurance business in San Francisco after his retirement from the Chicago Colts in 1899
