Need Help With A Few Cubbies

[charlietheexterminator]

Need a little help here. I researched and can’t find anything on this. It’s a $15 card show pick up. It was in a box of post cards, what you see is exactly how I pulled it. The uniform’s caught my attention.

Any info would be appreciated.

If you want to send me bigger pictures (assuming you have them) I can host them on my site and make them larger. it might help with the id. leon@net54baseball.com

Not sure it will help but it can't hurt..Good luck with the id.

There's a lot of ears in your PC to help with identification.

Time for the "ear" experts to chime in!

I know who they are, I need to know about the card itself, the year and why were they wearing that uniform.

Tell us who they are and maybe that will bring forth someone's knowledge or ignite their memory banks.

Evers on the left right?

[charlietheexterminator]

Evers is on the left is 100% correct. I say that’s Tinker in the middle.

I do not think that is either Evers or Chance on that postcard.

[charlietheexterminator]

Definitely a young Johnny Evers. I don’t see Chance either

Agreed.

Don't see the resemblance at all.

[Baseball Rarities]

I meant that I do not see Tinker either.

Am I seeing the name Babe Adams on the sticker that is in the back image? If so, he wasn't a Cub and he also is not in the picture.

[charlietheexterminator]

The label states “From the Babe Adams Estate “

There is no Babe Adams in the pic, according to the label, this was in his personal collection.

Maybe some of his teammates from the 1908 Louisville Colonels?

Ambrose Puttmann, Joe Stanley and Dick Harley. All on the 1908 Louisville Colonels

The collective wisdom on the board is unparalleled. I would say it's at least $17.50 worth of action.

Not so fast. The Colonels' uniform did not have a circle around the L (and in my opinion the faces don't match Puttmann, Stanley, and Harley):

100% not Evers. Not a young Evers, not an Old Evers, not even Evers younger brother Joseph...
