1941 Ted Williams'39 Image Type 1 Silver Gelatin Real-photo Postcard Geo Burke

   Additional Item Description (if necessary). Offered here is a silver gelatin real-photo postcard of Ted Williams that is postmarked during his historic 1941 season... The image is a well-known 1939 (rookie) image taken by famous photographer George Burke... What's unusual about this postcard is that it was sent by Burke himself...

Condition is nice, with only minor surface wear that does not detract from the quality of the image ...
