1991 NEGRO LEAGUE LEGENDS POSTCARD *#85-B - 1934 Kansas City Monarchs team ~ Just 10,000 individually numbered cards issued ~ Increasingly popular among collectors and serious baseball fans desiring vintage replicas of their favorites are postcards picturing greats, near-greats, journeymen and part-time players who appeared in the old Negro Leagues when Major League Baseball was a segregated game. This card is among the finest available at modest cost. This card, issued in 1991, is not a reprint in the strict sense of the term. It is an original card issued many years after the Black Leagues closed up shop. The players, their uniforms and equipment, and even the partial views of stadia sometimes seen in the background provide the collector with the briefest glimpse of that time long ago. *Team members ARE identified on the reverse side of card. Each card measures 3-1/2" by 5-1/2" in size, features a nice sepia photograph and provides basic information about the player, team or scene on its post card reverse. Serious collectors will want to add one or more of their favorites to their collections! Condition: Near-Mint
