I do not think he is hiding anything behind his back. It is some sort of canvas or cloth pouch. You can the the leather strap slung over to his right shoulder and under the bat.

I'll get off the 796 train and go with the Big Train on this...love this card even though its 1910. Some cards feel more like a piece of history to me and this is one of them.

Steven, That has to be one of the coolest postcards ever. I love that pose of the Weiser Wonder. So stoic.

Near the top of my list for WaJo cards. It will come as a surprise to those familiar with the Weiser studio portrait that there is an alternate pose, uncovered in the research for my book and posted here for the first time.

Hank - someone on facebook was inquiring as to what you think of Craig Kreindler's take on 'The Weiser Wonder'?.

Thanks to a bud and fellow member I added these...super pumped for both. LaJoie is highest graded and Evers is second highest graded example...just a tad obsessed at the moment.
