I have a very eclectic collection. Cards, memorabilia, bourbon, mini-bats, baseballs, etc.

When I find something vintage, it’s always a plus. This Briggs Stadium postcard was a really cool find for $1.50.

Briggs Stadium was the former historic ballpark in Detroit, MI. Later renamed Tiger Stadium, it served as home of the Detroit Tigers from 1912 to 1999 and the Detroit Lions from 1938 to 1974.

From what little research I have done, this postcard is from 1930-1945. Unfortunately, I can’t make out the postmark on the reverse of the postcard.

My vintage card of the week: The 1941 Play Ball Jimmie Foxx. This was the first 1940s card I acquired. Found it at my local card shop, which has a really great vintage selection, especially for a shop in a small town. The artwork immediately caught my eye. Just gorgeous colors that make the card a pleasure to look at. And Foxx was an absolute stud: 3X MVP; triple-crown winner; 534 career HR; and a cartoonish career OPS of 1.038.
