Default Amarillo Team 1901-07 Era

Posted this a while back in a thread asking for help securing the year of the postcards production, but thought I'd post it here as well.

Amarillo baseball team 1901-07 era...think their first team was in 1905 or 06

Chic Gandil played with Amarillo for a few months in 1906 and it is possible he's in this photo, but impossible to confirm without finding the same photo with a definitive date to it or better yet with players labeled.

Have included a 1907 comp photo of Gandil with the player that I think might be him on the postcard

Saw this at a postcard show years ago and thought it was cool. I have no information about it except what is on the back of the card (I believe what is handwritten is "Made in Hungary"). Quick Google and eBay searches did not turn up much...I saw one golf player for sale on a site based in India. I think this comes under the heading of "rare but not valuable".

Default Two new Folsom Field pickups... one extremely scarce copy.

Hi all,

A while back I had seen an image/scan depicting the stadium dedication game against Utah for Folsom Field (then Colorado Stadium) on November 1, 1924. This was only the fourth game ever played at what was then the "new" campus stadium which was a huge step forward from the small confines of the wooden bleachers of Gamble Field. CU was stepping onto the stage of big time college football. Originally I had reached out to some sources and was told that it was a colorized photo and had only been seen in reproduction format until that point. I however, recognized it as a postcard.

Well... I’m excited to share with you that I’ve tracked down an original copy of the postcard!

I was doing a little browsing on eBay and just happened across it as it was listed as being Gamble Field. Of course, I knew better! I was able to put in a bid on it and won! As of now I have only confirmed two copies. This is one of the neatest pieces of Buffs history depicting the greatest home field setting in college football nearly 100 years ago.

It seems that each copy was hand colored individually and was most likely done with watercolor or pastel. After a bit of searching I'm excited to finally confirm the existence of this image and thought I'd share it to be enjoyed with everyone else!

The second postcard shows the stadium and gymnasium circa 1920s-early 1930s.

Stay safe all and Sko Buffs!

Not seeing the Walsh photo id connection.

Cool Heimer, although not a real-photo postcard. I've wondered if the RPPC that uses the same image was produced by Heimer as well (the cabinet photo using the same image was copywrited by them).

His earliest mainstream card did not come out until 1914.
Awesome Maranville postcard. Great pose.

How are you and SGC able to date it to 1912? It seems odd that Boston American Souvenir would produce a postcard at the end of 1912 featuring a little know shortstop from a last place team who was not called up until the end of that season. I could not imagine there being much of a demand for a postcard like this in 1912.

Whatever the date, that is one of the best Maranville cards out there.

Also, is he the only known Boston National player known in the set?

It would make more sense that the postcard was issued in 1914 after the Boston Nationals swept the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series and Maranville came in second in the MVP voting to teammate Johnny Evers.

I would not trust either PSA or SGC with their dating, especially on something as rare as your Maranville postcard. They generally just copy their info from the different guides and do not change it unless someone can provide proof otherwise. For example, I think that they still refer to 1949 Leaf cards as being from 1948. LOL.

Do you have an image of the Hick Cady postcard? If so, I would love to see it.

Rick, those are absolutely awesome postcards.

I think that the top 4 postcards are all from the same set - PC742-2 Boston Daily American. They all use the exact same font which lists the player's full name, "Red Sox" and their position. They also have "Boston Daily American Souvenir" printed on the bottom left and have what I assume is a Union logo and the number 96 in the bottom right. They all have a very consistent look to them. They were definitely issued in 1912, the year that the Red Sox won the World Series.

I think that the three postcards at the bottom come from three different "sets." They are have a much different look from each other and look nothing like the 1912 PC742-2 Boston Daily American Souvenir postcards to me.

Thanks for sharing that image. I do not remember seeing that one before. I do not think that the Cady and the Maranville postcards are from the same set though.

Cady was with the Boston Red Sox for the entire year and was the starting catcher for six of their eight World Series games.

Default 1906 Washington Americans

The 1906 Washington baseball team lost 95 games and finished next-to-last in the American League. The team was led by player-manager Jake Stahl. Stahl's managerial record across two seasons in Washington and another two in Boston is not impressive. And though he was a World Series champion in 1912 and led the American League in home runs in 1910, he is best remembered as the acknowledged eponym of the term "jaking it", a baseball phrase for faking an injury to stay out of the lineup, or otherwise loafing.

Washington's prospects took a decided turn for the better the next year with the arrival of a 19 year-old pitcher out of the bush leagues of Idaho named Walter Johnson. He got there too late for the 1907 Sporting Life premium, but he is in the 1908 version, which might be his first appearance on a card or premium.

The available sources for this seem to be 21st century internet sites, which lack citations of any publications from Stahl's era that use the term "jaking it" with a clear reference to Stahl. This seems apocryphal to me, but perhaps somebody on this board has found it in the archives of the Boston Post or some other likely source.

Hank - Do you have an image of the 1908 Sporting Life Supplement of Washington? I would like to see which image they used of Johnson.

Here is Johnson's PC760 Rose Co. postcard which was also issued in 1908.

I think it was the Horner photo, but since I can't remember where I saw it or when, now I'm not even positive that I've seen a 1908 Washington version. I do have a picture of a 1909 I once owned, and that is the Horner image. Since I can't find reference to a 1908 online, I'm wondering now if it exists. Is there a checklist of them somewhere?

Default 1908 Walter Johnson - Sporting Life

This is the 1908 Sporting Life - Walter Johnson - he is in the upper left corner

This looks like a "reverse image" of the 1908 Rose Co. postcard

It looks like they didn't worry about which side of the negatives they used. In this 1909, Cantillon and Milan are reversed from the 1908.

Thanks for posting that image from the Sporting Life Newspapers. It definitely looks like they used the same Horner image that the Rose Co. used, except that they reversed it.

Not to get too far off subject, but does anyone know if The Sporting Life actually issued a W601 Supplement of Washington in 1908 or was this image just used in the January 30, 1909 edition of their newspaper?

I know that The Sporting Life issued W601 supplements between 1902 and 1911, but it seems as though they issued all teams in some years (1903, 04, 05, 06 and 09) and only a few teams in others (1902, 07, 08, 10 and 11)
