I love how he's almost falling over in the pose and that you can see clearly how he got his nickname.

These are wonderful. But under what circumstances would someone send somebody else a postcard bearing the likeness of George Weiss?

Jim & Craig - I'd not seen that Hubbell before; I love the angle that the photo is taken from!

Matt,

The issue was a set of schedule postcards issued by the NY Giants in 1932. You had to write in the Giants to ask for your favorite player. 22 players in total. Hubbell was far and away the most popular. It's speculated that they printed many more Hubbells than anyone else. Both Robert Lifson and Lew Lipset have speculated that the Hubbell was used as a promotional giveaway of some sort. Hubbell is available in both thick stock and thin stock. All others are thick stock only. The thin ones are printed reversed on the back side.

There are a couple on Ebay right now. One is a little high priced. The other is ridiculously priced.

Here's a link from an REA auction a couple of years ago. (I did not win this lot but I wish I had. It contains the 4 I need.)

........... maybe not my favorite, but since an early teens and late twenties dynasty Athletic pitchers (Plank -- my fav, and Grove) have been shown, I'd go with the less-than-dynasty-not-for-profit-A's early twenties hurler:


1921 Nayler



(42-83, 3.93 life time)
