Outstanding postcard depicting the Chicago White Sox posed with women and children in front of a rail car at Hanging Bridge in the Royal Gorge Colorado. The Hanging Bridge was built in 1878 and the White Sox photo op is well documented as having taken place in 1910 while the team was on its way to spring training in San Francisco. Much of the team is pictured in the photo and owner Charles Comiskey can be seen in the background immediately in front of the rail car large gray top hat on his head. Hall of Famer Hugh Duffy appears just to the right of the player standing tall in the back right. An entire thread about this photo exists on the Network 54 baseball forum complete with research into the event where the various players in the photo are identified. You can find the thread here.
