Real-photo postcard of Tris Speaker, postmarked January 25, 1950, signed by Speaker in blue ink on the front. PSA has encapsulated the card and graded the signature NM-MT 8. This card is part of a much larger signature collection compiled by our consignor's father in the late 1940s ("The Long Beach Autograph Collection"), the bulk of which appeared in our 2023 Summer Classic auction. Like nearly all autograph collectors at the time, his main method was to write each player and enclose a prepaid self-addressed government postcard to be signed and returned. As we can see here, Speaker, like most players, was happy to oblige. The postcard (5.5x3.25") remains in Excellent condition.
