Some old postcards and other misc. items
I have been reading these boards for awhile and I was wondering, since among the posters here you seem to know about everything that has been produced sportswise, if you might be able to help identify some of these items (plus a couple of items I think are interesting. There are both baseball and football items among these so I apologize if i am posting these in the wrong place. I picked these up in the early 80's at some postcard dealer set up at a flea market and thought they were interesting with their sports themes. The first are 4 woven items of different colleges with different sports shown on the front. The columbia one shows baseball:
    The next is a postcard of Leland Stanford with a copyright of 1905. I don't know if it is really old or if it might be a Standford product or part of a set:   The next is a picture of a baseball player that I don't recognize and no name is mentioned on the card:   The last 2 I thought were interesting because one shows Cooperstown and the other a baseball game:     I also found a bunch of old postcards of football stadiums. I am especially interested in the college items and the baseball player. If anyone has any information on any of these items I would appreciate. Thank-you for taking the time to look at these. I enjoy reading everyones posts on prewar cards and hope to continue to learn from the information that is posted here. Jim

don't know a lot
I don't know a lot about them except that the only one that is probably somewhat valuable is the single player one, which looks like McGraw. Maybe others that know these more will help out...

The single player postcard is 1907-1917, made by Velox. Looks like maybe a Boston Braves hat. I don't know anything at all about the Boston Braves players but might guess Herbie Moran?
If it's not Moran, and nobody else has a better guess, at least you can start with those years and maybe the Braves.

The Rangley postcard is from a town about 50 miles from me here in Maine. It's a outdoor sportsman mecca in the area.

Thank-you for your replies. I also appreciate the PMs but at this point I plan to hold on to these because I love collecting and I really have a hard time getting rid of things.
I do have another question. I also have some tobacco size of birds and other non sports, also some old boxing cards (but I see you have a forum for boxing), and some Hassan cowboy cards. I was wondering where would be the proper place to post scans and questions for these items. I also have some T205, T206, Caramel, and Dockman cards plus maybe a couple of other types I would like to find out more about. I do appreciate your time and enjoy finding out new things. I've been out of active collecting for 20 years and I'm afraid reading the boards here is going to suck me back in to try and finishish some of the older sets I have. Thank-you, Jim
