I love Baseball Postcards

My one and only........

It's hard for me to even say that my favs are Jeff's Crawford ready for the ball, Jim's Maranville Day and Bosox arriving, Brad's lefty grove - because they're all really interesting, tougher cards. Great thread.

Btw- Steve - who are the players with the auto?

Here's a few of mine......

1. The back tells us the picture was taken July 4th 1914 in Arnegard, North Dakota. Town founded in 1913. Population in the 2010 census, 115.

2. I never took the time to research this one. AZO and Undivided back. Maybe taken abroad on an Army base during WWI?

3/4. I think this is the only card in the Red Belt series that I have seen produced in a different way. (jimmy Collins sliding)

5. Hilltop Park. A Thaddeus Wilkerson card. A toughie. He took photos of NYC and privately produced into PC's. I live a couple miles away from where the Highlanders used to play and every so often take a walk around where the field was and reminisce.

Hope you enjoy. Really great cards guys.

Great postcards!

Here's my lone example. Back to back to back 20 game winner Frank Owen on the hill for the first pitch ever thrown at Swayne field while a member of the Toledo Mudhens. I'm pretty sure somewhere in the infield is HOFer Joe McCarthy who spent the 1909 season with Toledo.

It's also the only image of Ty Cobb that makes me think of Godzilla. Oh wait a sec maybe..... nope just this one.

I didn't think anyone would shake Cobb's hand!

Could all the stories about him be wrong???

That Seattle postcard is a beauty!

Really like the Seattle card too.

Here's one that arrived today, very tough Shibe card.

1914 view of Weeghman Park (now Wrigley Field), taken exactly 100 years ago today (4/23/14).



And since I was at the 100th Anniversary game today, my attempt to recreate it.

That is a very cool card. I really enjoy the elephant design. They don't make things like this any more and I think that's a mistake.
