These things often cost $25-50 on Ebay, but I managed to snag three of them for $15. My goal now is to try and pin them down to a particular year. I put one of them above; the text on the back is very faint, and I had to crank up the contrast in the scan to make it visible.

Is there a source anywhere for these? I might be more compelled to shell out more $$$ for them if I had a better idea as to what I'm buying.

Nice snag! I'm a Fidrych collector myself, but I've never seen these. I tried looking but didn't find anything yet. I'll keep trying.

maybe 1978. He's on the checklist for Detroit Tigers postcards. ------------------------------- Follow my blog - I Identify as a Card Collector. “Aslan didn't tell Pole what would happen.

This is NOT a team-issed Tigers postcard. It is most likely done by a photographer out of California named Mel Bailey.
