Happy, yet sad, because the hunt is over.
If I am reading this right, you had your avatar pic first then found the card sometime later?

If that's the the way it is, that is a very cool story, imo.

Here's a recent pickup for me----
In handwritten cursive on the sidebar----"Do you recognize the catcher"
Also, a hand painted addition of a flask (or whiskey bottle?) in the back pocket of catcher + a tipsy chair

Here's a nice 1932 Charles Denby Cigars Postcard of Billy Herman. This is considered his "RC" if you're into that sort of thing!

That's correct.

I used that postcard as my avatar for a few years now, but didn't actually own one. Finally found one this year. Now the hunt continues for the second version.

Here's an odd one, a RPPC of the 1889 Washington Nationals Team with Connie Mack & Hank O'Day that was printed sometime between 1939-1950.

Here's a nice one, a C. 1907 Real Photo Postcard of the Manitowoc Baseball Team. Famous Negro League Pitcher George Wilson is sitting in the front row, first player from the left.

JB, nice RPPC of the 1889 Washington team, but I'm curious as to which player you believe is Hank O'Day. I don't think he is in this photo, as whomever wrote the players' names on the front of the PC did not identify O'Day as being among them. O'Day was sold by Washington to New York on July 26, 1889, hence I suspect the photo was taken later in the 1889 season. Also, "Honest" John Morrill, who apparently is not in this photo, was released by Washington on July 6, 1889, further suggesting this photo was taken later in the season.
