Default Embossed Postcards Players Identified.

Maybe this is old news for some but until now I never knew the identity of the players on these embossed postcards from the 1910s. Includes an image of a Hall of Famer!

The first image is George Winter, Red Sox, 1901 -1908

Good detective work Jim!

I've actually had a few of these in my hands at flea markets and didn't buy them because I didn't know their time frame or who the player was. Guess we do now.

Thanks for posting

Jantz

Hey Jim/others,

I had the complete set of 1907 Morgan Stationary color postcards & a number of the embossed cards.

The Jimmy Collins Morgan Stationary photo shows him making a play at 2nd base but he is not wearing baseball spikes, he is actually wearing street shoes!

Look at the color postcard in this thread...

Paul

Default Catcher batter embossed PC

The batter bears a striking resemblance to Red Murray. He had an unusual batting stance as well. Note the unusual position of the rear leg in both the PC and this photo.

Default Red Murray & PC792?

Did anyone ever ID the Batter & Catcher card? Looking at Red Murray's Turkey Red, I think we're on the right track...

Reviving this thread to throw this into the mix:





Anyone else seen one like this, with a player name added, or is this a franken-card?

Wow, cool thread. I missed this 10 years ago. That's one reason I wasn't a big fan of those post cards. Now, I'm rethinking that. Pretty neat.

Well, we at least know this card is not Boss Schmidt. But his sister thought it resembled him
