Grignon player query

[Michael Peich]

I recently acquired this Grignon postcard, and it is alleged to have been written by Frank Schulte. The remarks on the card would suggest a player had written it. And the reference to "today Saturday" corresponds with the postmark date, Oct. 12, 1907 (the -2 is partly obscured, but is a -2), which was the day/date of the series clinching game #5 for the Cubs.

I asked the opinions of three autograph experts (two autograph dealers, one early Chicago expert/dealer) at the Valley Forge Show. Two of the three felt it was Schulte's signature (not Frank Chance btw, the only other -F on the team), and the other dealer (a well known autograph dealer) was rude, dismissive, and didn't offer an opinion (I'll keep him anonymous, but his initials are the same letter. He'll never get any business from me.) BTW, when I bought the card I did not pay an extra premium for the alleged Schulte connection.

Can anyone post a Schulte handwritten note/letter that will allow me to compare the writing? Many thanks, and in the meantime enjoy the card.

Cheers, Mike

PS--Leon: I hope it's okay to post in both the card and memorabilia forum. If not take the post down from the card section.
