Default Posey

I once owned this Cabinet of Posey from 1908-09. I am still shocked it sold for so little given that it's his earliest known photographic appearance of which I am aware. It pictures him with his teammates of the 1908-09 Homestead High School Basketball Team.

Here's a list of the known items of Posey:
  • 1908-09 Homestead High School Basketball Team Cabinet
  • 1913 Homestead Grays Team Photo Cabinet (at least 2 diff known - same photo / different mount)
  • c1930 Harrison Studio Homestead Grays Team Postcard
  • 1931 Homestead Grays Team Postcard
  • 1935 Homestead Grays Team Negro League Broadside Composite
  • 1988 Pittsburgh Negro League Stars
  • 2006 Yellow HOF Postcards
  • ...

Even the 1988 card has multiple players on it. The first individual card appears to be the 2006 Yellow HOF Postcard.

Please let me know if you know of anything else that could be added to this list.
