Though SGC has inexplicably refused to date this postcard, it features the 1907 Manitowoc, Wisconsin team, an integrated team that included African-American pitcher George Wilson, who played ten seasons in the Negro Leagues.  An outstanding pitcher, he struggled with the Manitowoc team, as he was older and later in his career.  Graded EX 5 by SGC, the card is clean with a sharp image, square corners and little surface wear.
