Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist . . . ~ 1946-1952 Albertype Hall of Fame plaque postcard ~ Thomas Francis Michael McCarthy ~ Boston Beaneaters (Braves), St. Louis Browns AA (Cardinals), Brooklyn Bridegrooms (Dodgers), Boston Reds (Union Assoc.) & Philadelphia Quakers (Phillies) ~ Type 2 ("New York" is spelled out) ~ The Albertype Post Card Co. of Brooklyn, N.Y., for the period 1944-1952, was the official producer of the National Baseball Hall of Fame & Museum's plaque postcards. Each card was produced in 3-1/2" by 5-1/2" size and featured the bronze plaques in black & white. Like their successor, Artvue, two styles of cards were issued. Baseball hobbyists have designated the 1944-1945 cards as Type 1. These are identified by the "N.Y." abbreviation for New York after Cooperstown on the front of each card. Type 2's, however, have the state name spelled out - as this card. This particular card is, therefore, a Type 2 Albertype Hall of Fame plaque postcard. Condition: Excellent - check the high resolution scans, front and back; a burgundy background has been provided to assist in evaluating the card corners and edges. _______________________ Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low. Our primary objective is to sell cards and other things of interest to baseball hobbyists - not make money by overcharging on shipping. U.S. residents: We combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate.) All Other Countries: Email us first. To receive your combined shipping, please wait for us to send you a combined invoice. The eBay checkout system usually displays an incorrect shipping charge. (It is normally too high.) Please do not pay for each item separately; if you pay separately, there is no shipping discount. We pack your order carefully - sandwiching cards between cardboard and utilizing boxes, bubble wrap, etc., as necessary - to ensure your items arrive in the condition you expect. Items are shipped the next business day after we receive your payment. We ship 5 - usually 6 - days each week. Payment should be made within 7 days after notification of purchase.
