Let's see some postcards

One of my favorites. 1910s view of Ocean Park, Lynn Massachusetts. New England League Ballpark located right on the beach, note the beach and ocean just over the fence. Also the Bull Durham Bull making an appearance in left. Apparently grass doesn't grow very well at the beach!

That's a tough one Jeff, I like them all! But if I had to pick it would be these three postcards:

Just picked this up from a fellow net54er the other day. You can see a couple farmhouses way in the distance, just a nice slice of Americana summed up on this one

1910 Greenville RPPC, that gives us all slight hope that a similar Greenville card from 1908 may exist.

1914 RPPC of George Kelly and Tiny Leonard when they were both in the Northwestern League (Victoria and Portland, respectively). Is it just me, or is Tiny Leonard separated at birth with actor Bill Paxton, aside from the bald head?
One day I'll dig in and find out why they both shaved their heads.

Jeff - love that Maranville PC. It's one of my favorites of all time.

Seattle - very interesting George Kelly PC. How do you come up with the 1914 date on the George Kelly / Tiny Leonard bald-head PC? I would love to learn about the back story on this.

Thank you both, Joe and Jeff. I think that PC765 isn't right, either. I think that's for the Dietsche postcards.

Maybe if we could get it right then the slabbing companies could figure it out.

You would think, all they need to do is look at the back that I posted that links Suhling and the $-Shield logo. Most are labeled 1908 Cubs/White Sox postcard.

Thrilled to have this George Gibson The Rose Company Postcard that arrived today.
