Here is the entry on West Side Grounds from the 1997 edition of Tom Crabtree's "Baseball Stadium Postcards", a pretty exhaustive list. The prices give an idea of the relative scarcity of the various cards.

Wow, this is awesome! I really appreciate it. I had no idea there were so many! I've seen images of only maybe 13-14 or so.

Yours is PRE 81, the second one on the list. A lot of these are the same image, just with slightly different captions, publishers, etc. Yours is one of the few to come in only one variant.

I appreciate it. Do you have photos of many of the postcards off that list? Tough to make out what ones are which but I am shocked there are so many different ones, forgetting the many slight variations. That is a great list. I really appreciate it.

Very cool postcards shown here.

I thought it would be alright to post this here, I did a blog post about the West Side Grounds a couple years ago as I use an image of the ballpark as the header for my blog and thought some might enjoy it. Also a shameless plug for my meager and poorly written blog. Here is the link. https://forloveofthecards.blogspot.c...ball-park.html There are a couple nice images of the park included.

Nice assist, David,
I am guessing this Cubs buttonhead didn't make the list?
