It was a different photo, but same day I believe as the fans in the background are the same.
I reached out to the seller to get some details. Here was his response:
I believe I mentioned in the listing this was postmarked Aug 7, 1911--so possibly made right away? There was an article in the Fennimore Times years ago-- about the annual Fennimore Big Days--and mention of the baseball teams. I got this at a local estate sale. Just bought a box of postcards--don't know if I even noticed this one. Otherwise they had a dumpster coming to finish cleaning out the house. So, a nice rescue.
