Over the past few years early baseball postcards featuring Major League teams have become incredibly desirable those featuring named players and Hall of Famers even more so. This postcard from 1907 features Hall of Fame members Sam Crawford Hugh Jennings and an extremely young Ty Cobb. While this image was reproduced in numerous postcard sets in printed form the real-photo version is held in higher regard by most collectors. This example does feature some writing on its reverse and has some general wear but retains a gorgeous and dark image on its front. Importantly it also has an early postal stamp on its reverse September 8 1907 helping to definitively date its production to prior to this date.
