AWESOME LETTER...I have just started to realize how much I enjoy these letters and I do not even own one yet!

As for the photo, the press stamp IS NOT of the type 1 variety unfortunately. The image is from 1913 but the stamp has a zip code(first thing I notice). Secondly, UPI was not even around then so no variation of their stamp would suffice. The evolution of United Press can be viewed on "A Portrait of Baseball Photography" by Fogel, Oser and Yee on page 162.

It is a GREAT image and has value..just not Type 1 value. In any case, the two would look awesome framed up together. Congrats before hand if you land the letter!!!
