A fantastic 1905 Napoleon Lajoie postcard from the Raymond Kahn Company. This is a very rare postcard that appears to be in VG condition with light wear and rounding of the corners. The back is postmarked 1907 and is addressed to "Mr. Raymond Rudy, Millersburg, Ohio" in pencil. This item has been graded by PSA as authentic. Lajoie is widely considered to be one of the best ballplayers of the early 20th century, putting up outstanding career numbers such as a .338 lifetime average, 3,242 hits, and 1,504 runs scored. He also won the Triple Crown in 1901. Lajoie was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1937.
