Attractive blue-toned photo of Koshien Stadium in Osaka (misspelled "Kosher" in our printed catalog due to a bad autocorrect we did not notice).  Writing on the reverse dates the postcard and photo to August 8, 1934, during the tour of Japan and listing three games between the American and Japanese teams.  Panoramic photo pictures the entire park during game play, the stands filled with fans.  11" x 3 1/2" unfolded, the perforated center fold weakened with age, FAIR condition considering the fold and writing on the reverse (though the writing is what makes the postcard most interesting).
