I'd thought it was real, the background and shadows are also grainy. That there's writing on the image isn't a big deal whoever was making real photo postcards would use whatever negative they had, or what was supplied.
So I did some looking to see what it might be worth. And that's when it all unraveled. The Azo back with triangles pointing up in each corner is shown as ending around 1918. Hmmmm...... It wouldn't be impossible for a place to have never rotated their stock of blanks, but 8 years is a bit of a stretch. The image and text is the same as the Sporting News Supplement. So unless the sporting news was using a postcard as a sales promo for the supplements, it's not looking good. And why wouldn't that postcard have the ad copy printed on it? Strike three. Steve B |
