Mathewson
This pitcher is right handed – that eliminates Rube Marquard
The scoreboard indicates it is at the start of the game, so this would be a “Starting Pitcher.” There appears to be no score, so this must be the “top” of the inning – Giant pitcher on the mound Four teams came to town in the month of August 1913 – St. Louis Cardinals, Pittsburg Pirates, Chicago Cubs, and Cincinnati Reds. Based on the size of the crowd (small), I doubt the opponents were the Pirates or the Cubs, who both had winning records – as did the Giants. That leaves the Cardinals and the Reds. With the exception of Rube Marquard, all of the Giants pitchers that pitched in these two series were right handed. The size of the crowd likely indicates the game is not on a weekend. The Cardinals played a double header on Thursday and one on Friday. The Reds played on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday – both teams had a losing record. Jeff Tesreau (right handed), pitched the second game of a double header on Thursday 14 Aug 1913 – the pitcher looks like him, but a double header would have probably drawn a larger crowd. The Giants starting pitchers against the Reds (3 game series) were Doc Crandal (right handed), Mathewson (right handed), and Art Fromme (right handed) Fromme pitched against Mordecai Brown – probably would have been a big crowd Mathewson would have probably had a big crowd Doc Crandal pitched against Red Ames – Monday, 25 Aug 1913. My educated guess is that this is Doc Crandal on the mound. I certainly could be wrong, but I believe it looks like him also. |

Finally a Dingman. This one was sent by Harl Maggert. Love it. Anyone know who John Edgar was? He had some way of knowing Maggert from the Springfield Ponies. Lifted the image from the auction, I’m feeling too lazy to scan it.

This is a really awesome thread! I am still working my way through it but wanted to give kudos to you guys. I am beginning to be drawn to collecting a few of these as well. It's the images themselves, the visual appeal, the moment in time that I am finding myself drawn to. Sometimes the lithography of cards of the prewar era just doesn't offer the image that a postcard offers.
I have drifted all over the place during my collecting life---cards (sets then just singles), photos, prewar, postwar...I have even been buying modern cards lately! While I am a fan of particular players/teams, I find I am really liking prewar postcards featuring old major league ballparks and the surrounding buildings/skyline that can be seen nearby. As a card collector, I didn't like team cards, but I like them when it comes to postcards, especially noteworthy teams. One postcard offers a nice picture of multiple HOFers. I am baffled that the collecting of these isn't more widespread than it is. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

I think any team with one or more Hall of Famers is going to do very well. And even for the obscure teams, it's a good bet more than one collector is really into local baseball stuff. Even "generic" teams that haven't been identified are cool looking--and these are somebody's grandparents!

I tried staying out of the postcard market so there goes that. From the writing on the back of the Max Carey PC, it looks like it came from the family of player James Viox, who's applying the tag on Max. Circa 1916.

1939 PC from Carmel, NY from the training camp of Arturo Godoy, one of Joe Louis's bums of the month (challengers he beat readily). I liked it because of the local connection: my family spent every summer in the Carmel township when I was kid and I have very fond memories of going to Lake Gleneida in Carmel every 4th of July for the Fireman's Fair and fireworks shows.

Being bored and putting some postcards in mylar sleeves. Discovered I had some multiple cards from the old Lew Lipset auctions, all in one holder. He used to sell postcards in groups. Here are 4 Max Steins and 2 Pinkertons (1 blank and 1 stat back). After all the negativity on PSA and trimmers, its nice to see raw postcards to remind me why I like collecting this cardboard.

I don't actively collect these anymore, but I saved some from when I did. These are my rppc teams that I have not posted in the Baseball Ladies or Native American threads. I see about seven future HOFers (just kidding). But if anyone wants to look for famous ears, I can post larger scans of individual cards.

This is probably my favorite piece in my Johnny Antonelli player collection. It is actually larger than a typical postcard, coming in at around 5 x 7. It is my understanding there are versions featuring Bill Rigney, Tommy Henrich, and some guy named Willie Mays.

Two new arrivals today; Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds. Both postally unused.
The Polo Grounds one is a bit worn around the edges and I already had a black ink version, but how can you let a vintage postcard with John McGraw pass by you without buying it? |
