1942 Jack Glasscock Handwritten Government Postcard
He was called "Pebbly Jack" for his habit of groundskeeping at his position, picking up stray pebbles that might alter the course of a grounder and tossing them aside. Postcard mailed from Wheeling, West Virginia, where he was born in 1859 and where he would die in 1947, is penned entirely in his dark black ink. He cordially responds to a fan's request for an autograph, and dismisses modern ballplayers as "college boys" who "can't hardly get themselves to talk to you." He must really be spinning in his grave now. Card has no creasing or tearing and displays perfectly.
