Rare H.H. Bregstone postcard of pitcher Dineen.  The Bregstone postcard issue contains photographic images of members of the St. Louis Browns and Cardinals, and is rare enough that poses and variations remain as of yet undiscovered.  Catalogued as PC743, they are considered among the most rare postcards featuring individual players from multiple teams.  

The card was one of a significant find of Bregstone postcards we received on consignment from the family of former Browns pitcher Barney Pelty.  This was the first example of Dineen's Bregstone to be graded by PSA; just one more has been graded by SGC, and this is the highest-graded example.  Largely clean, with some light wear to the corners, some fading is evident at the top of the image, but is otherwise strong.
