Can anyone identify these two postcards? Frederick Burr Opper is the artist that I am finding.

Hello,

I Googled and found Samson Brothers from 1912. I then went to the Old Cardboard page and found this:

PC798-20 (1912) $$
Boys in Overalls Series
Twelve cards; about 3-1/2 x 5-1/2 inches

Notes from Keetz 1983 Reference:
S 125 (black and white, little boy(s) in overalls) Caricatures of wide-eyed boys in various baseball positions. Lightly hand-tinted variations also known; some displayed in Gallery.

Produced in 1912 by Samson Brothers of New York, NY. "Made in USA" and Samson Brothers logo printed on postcard back (logo example shown).

Cards in this set include the following titles:

Choppin' De Breezes
Dis Is De Umpire!
For A Three Bagger
Give The Wad A Wallop (no overalls)
Out
Pickin' It Out Of The Ether
Shove De Pill Right Over De Plate
Slam Em Over De Plate
The Captain of the Winners
The Pill Receiver
The Pitcher at the Well
The Sphere Shortstop
