What I noticed was the person who wrote it, asked if Anna could pick "him" out of the bunch?" Now, perhaps the sender was just being coy, but perhaps it was sent from one of the players or Mgr's ?? It was addressed to Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania... Anyone know of any relatives or family of any of the players in that area ? Also, there is some interesting initials at the bottom of the back of the pc that I can't make out...

Great PC by the way... I never saw it - Thanks Brian for bringing it to life on N54

Slippery Rock is north of Pittsburgh. Relatives are/were a possibility.

The Honis is nice but the Dreyfuss is the sleeper on the card, IMO. There's lots of Wagner stuff but not all that much career contemporary cardboard for Dreyfuss.

Have to agree -- anyone searching for Wagner is probably using 'Wagner' over Honus (or Honis!).

Either way, that is a pretty awesome looking postcard. Seems to have a lot of the same images as others, but still cool all the same.

Regards,

Richard.

The inscription reads "What do you think of this bunch? Can you pick me out?"

So yes, it's from a player.

Man, that player sure does have exquisite penmanship.

I watched it too. This also happens to be one of the earliest Barney Dreyfuss pieces out there...very nice PC. I looked up "1909 New Texas" on Google (per the inscription on front) and found an address in Pittsburgh. I was a bit confused by his remark, but now understand.

I hope it was a board member who won -- perhaps one of the Jeffs??
