Think I recall seeing that at the National one year, is it just a photo of the poster turned into a RPPC?

Joe,

I have seen the postcard a few times. The seller usually has it at the Philly shows. I had considered purchasing it, but at the price, for half a postcard, couldn't justify it. Have never seen it before. The seller has tried selling it for the past few years with no luck probably due to price and condition. Still a neat piece.

Here's one that was postmarked during the 1909 World Series, Detroit v. Pittsburgh ("Big doings in Detroit," says the message), with a carefully cut out cutout of Cobb, Colgan's-style, pasted to the reverse. For more, visit http://www.sportingoregon.com/

I've seen it, too, at the last few Nationals. It's neat, but I concur with Jeff P -- it's either a reproduced photo of the poster or of the cards (done roughly at the same time).

Is half a RPPC better than none?

Thanks for all of the information. Its not a team composite picture. Its a combination of the individual pictures featured on the Dietsche postcards. The show is not far from my house and I will get a picture that I can post tomorrow.

Thanks,

Pete,

Ira Thomas is also in the set. Doesn't show up very often. I traded away my copy.

I've also seen the half postcard at a bunch of Nationals; it is a collection of pictures of all the individual Detroit cards. I don't like it.
