Sensational real photo postcard featuring Walter Johnson alongside young Phillies pitcher Ad Brennan taken before a game on November 7 of 1912 in Humboldt Kansas between the semipro Humboldt Greys and Iola White Sox (despite the fact that the two players appear to be wearing their professional uniforms). The two Kansas natives were facing each other and this photo was taken for the Humboldt Union newspaper (see clip). This example originated with Johnson's personal collection and has been graded VG 40 by SGC.
