Ruth Yankee Stadium Postcard
 
2 Attachment(s)
Anybody have any more info on this Babe Ruth Postcard? I know that it was a Souvenir Shop item sold during the 50-60's at Yankee stadium but more specifically on its rarity, scarcity and how to find on PSA or SGC pop report (if at all)?

There's one on ebay, hard to find it in the POP reports without knowing what it is. Might be able to ask the ebay seller, seems like he has more.

SGC graded a total of 23. Once the certification is vetified, it will allow you to load the pop report.

The postcard reverse font looks 1980s to me. It's almost certainly not 1950-60s.

Agreed that the back appears to be 1980s.

I can tell you the image originates from a Charles Conlon negative my father discovered in the late 1960’s. The same image appears on both a Sports Cards For Collectors postcard and several TCMA cards. Most likely scenario is whoever produced the Ruth postcard in question sourced the image from TCMA during the 70’s/80’s.

1961 Wrigley Field Postcards
 
The backs remind me of the 1961 Wrigley Field Exhibit Postcards, except for the lines under the stamp box. Most of the 1970's and 1980's postcards generally have more information on the backs, plus a zip code. It would be nice to get a definitive answer. The Keyman site is saying late 1950's thru the 1960's.

What was the original use of the Charles Conlon photo prior to TCMA using it?

TCMA 02-13-2023 05:49 PM

Unknown. I hadn’t seen it used elsewhere until now.
