Wow...great PC's guys! I only have one...still not 100% sure who this team is. There was a thread 3 years ago but nothing came of it. I think it is a Wisconsin based team in the Milwaukee area...but I can't find those details any more.

Hi All,

I like the RRPC's being shown here. Especially true since I collect photographs and most of my concert photography is in black and white. I cannnot contribute any baseball pc's as I do not collect baseball. I am, however posting some RRPC's and one publicity PC from my Olympic archives. As I do not know how to put words between the images I am listing them first.

Nate Cartmell - 1904 & 1908 1 gold, 2 silver, 1 bronze athletics

Charley Jewtraw - 1st ever Winter Olympics gold medal speedskating

Johnny Garrels -1908 silver hurdles, bronze shotput. One of the greatest all-around athletes in University of Michigan history. Left end on the 1904 and 1905 'Point a Minute' football teams. Fullback in 1906 and scored the first TD at Ferry Field.

Albert Gutterson - 1912 gold long jump. Official Olympic PC from Sweden

Johnnie Hayes - 1908 gold marathon. Finished second, but awarded gold when Dorando from Italy was helped across the line by officials.

Mort Kaer- 1924 Athletic pentathlon. 1st USC consensus All American in football. His 19 TD's in 1925 not broken until O.J. Simpson in 1968. NFL Franford Yellowjackts 1931. College Football Hall of Fame.

Joie Ray - 1924 bronze track. Also competed in 1920, 1928. Inscribed to Rube Waddell, but not THAT Rube Waddell.

Louis Scott - 1912 gold track. Signed on the back

Oscar Osthoff -1904 gold and silver weightlifting. Lettered in FB, track and gymnastics at Wisconsin. State champ in diving at the age of 40. Football coach at Washington State 1910-1911.

Hope you like them.

I forgot to post these two so here they are.

1972 U.S. Olympic Wrestling team. Mailed from Munich during the games. Tallest athlete in the back row is Ken Patera. He made a name for himself in pro wrestling. Man on the left with the glasses is John Terpak. Competed in the 1936 and 1948 Olympics. He was a world champ in 1937 and 1947.

1904 Olympics - men competing in the high bar. This may be practice as the photo is dated in pencil July 26,1904 and there were no events on this day. There were gymnastics events two weeks later (Bohemian Gymnastics) and also as part of track and field at the end of August. Not all of the events in St Louis in 1904 were Olympic events. There were high school, AAU and other events which were all part of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition aka 1904 Worlds Fair.
