Here's an awesome postcard I scooped up from ebay a couple of weeks ago. It's a 1910 RPPC of William "Bill" Lange (Chicago Colts Center Fielder 1893-1899). Did some research on how he ended up in this sweet ride and I found this explanation:
"Chicago Daily News photos of the now 39-year-old Lange show him in fit physical condition, belying reports that Lange’s weight had ballooned to over 300 pounds. In appreciation for his service to the earlier Chicago club, Cubs fans took up subscriptions that resulted in a handsome Chalmers touring car later being presented to Lange." Also, he used this postcard to advertise his Real Estate & Insurance business in San Francisco after his retirement from the Chicago Colts in 1899

 This 1947 version of the team RPPC is even tougher to find than the 1946 version, which is nearly impossible. I have seen three examples of the 1946 Peoria Red Wings RPPC become available over the past few years (I bought two of them). This was the first 1947 team RPPC that I have ever seen. Had no idea it even existed. Tom C
