1913 Charles Comiskey "White Sox" Boat Real Photo Postcard
The 1913 Chicago White Sox finished in the middle of the American League pack with a 78-74 record, but as they were embarking on their season in April, owner Charles Comiskey was setting sail on his fancy boat which has the team nickname on the cabin and bow. A photo of that vessel comprises the front of this postcard that Comiskey sent to a Col. J. Peck Sharp of Kentucky. Note the right side of the photo shows an armed guard, although World War I hadn't officially started yet. The first card of its kind we have seen.
