Picked up this beauty on eBay, it is kind of hard to see but pitcher is etched into the side. I believe this is from 1902 and made by Meridan. The inscription reads "Presented to Edwin Werk by the Anti-Knocking Club"
Any help on this would be appreciated. |

"Any help on this would be appreciated..."
Bob: The only "help" I can offer would be to take it off your hands.... though I doubt that would really be appreciated ![]() Congrats on the gorgeous acquisition! |

Nice pitcher. It reminds me of Indiana Jones when the bad guy "Chose....Poorly"

Had to pick up this WWII photo. It's Luke Sewell batting during a USO trip in Burma in 1945. It matches perfectly with the ball I have from this trip that was signed by Luke!

My second signed postcard to go with the Ruth I already have. Thought this was cool even though the conditions is rougher than I normally like. I'll have it certified once I get it but it has 100% money back guarantee with it. Just in case.

FWIW, as far as the RPPC itself, all looks correct for it being an original produced by George Burke. Quite a bit tougher to find them in the 3-1/2"x5-1/2" size with pre-printed postcard back than his usual 4"x6" size. (The opposite is true for his successor, George Brace, who produced RPPC's in abundance).

Thanks for the info.
I have no idea what size this is actually. I saw another one on eBay that the crop looks a bit different but that really means nothing on overall size. I just knew it was a Burke on an AZO 1926-40's RPPC. Just thought it was cool and figured it was from his playing days. As for the signature I have no idea if its real as it looks totally different than most of the signatures I've seen from him. |
