Item Description
3.25x5.25" w/glossy front featuring great team photo of 12 players and manager at center. The key player on this postcard is the legendary HOF member John Henry "Pop" Lloyd, generally considered the greatest shortstop in Negro League history. He stands in the back row, sixth from the left. Also pictured is Clint Thomas and we believe Andy Cooper, who was on the team this year. Reverse shows trace of aging w/some residue stains at corners and has penciled name and date of 1924. Front has just the slightest margin wear, image is clean and crisp. VF. Superb postcard. From the Richard Merkin Collection and comes with Hake's COA.
