Lot # 37: 1913 M101-3 Sporting News Postcards Walter Johnson and Gabby Street SGC FAIR 20

Classic example from the 1913 M101-3 Sporting News Postcards series featuring Washington Senators batterymates Walter Johnson and Gabby Street. A total of six cards comprise a complete set, which was available as a premium from the Sporting News. The newspaper is well-known to card collectors for a number of 1910-era sets. Each postcard in the set measures 3.5 x 5.5 inches, features a duotone color photo on the front and a traditional postcard reverse. This example has brilliant colors and a crisp image. Graded FAIR 20 by SGC. The postcard, while not addressed and mailed, does display pencil notations on the reverse. Despite the technical grade, this is a strong example that would be a worthy addition to any Walter Johnson, Washington Senators, or postcard collection.
