Graded 20 Fair 1.5 by SGC. The winning bidder will be proud to own this circa 1900s Baltimore Baseball Cub Champions 1894-'95'-'96 postcard. Released approximately ten seasons after their dynamic run through "the gay nineties", this colorful ephemeron is much more elusive than the common Bachrach & Brothers black-and-white version. The Hall of Fame stacked team composite is beautifully framed above the Maryland state shield. The postmarked 10/19/07 reverse details their attendance at the game in front of a "mighty crowd". Moderate creasing does not seriously impact the overall presentation.
