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.

This postcard depicting Lefty O'Doul and Japanese HOF manager Shunichi Amachi has a commemorative postmark dated 11/7/51 from Narumi Stadium, where the Seals played that day.



First one of these I've ever seen:

Hi all,

Jeff Prizner is correct. Suhling made the $-in-shield cards. I changed this info on VintageBall's 1909-1914 Player Postcards page in 2011 back when Jeff pointed out the error in the old Mashburn postcard guidebook.

However, I wasn't able to change the actual page of these postcards because the file got corrupted and any updates I made would delete the entire page!

I finally went ahead and re-built the page today (www.vintageball.com/suhling.html) and updated the old page (www.vintageball.com/crose.html), as well.

I still need to add some more of the actual cards, but will do that at some point in the future...

Have not seen this one ever auctioned off.

Pretty cool, does it fold out revealing more players?

sweet postcard!!! I have only seen one other (or is it the same one) in the 1991 Sotheby's Copeland auction catalog. Very sweet indeed!

This Bob Fitzsimmons is the 3rd card ever to surface from The Stein Co.'s pre-1907 run of boxers. By far the best too, as he is a HOFer and the other two are of a journeyman and a contender. A forerunner of the Max Stein PCs.

An upgrade for me and with a schedule stamped onto the reverse side.

Amazing clarity on the Vancouver card, love the sweater details.
