  Completely unrelated to sports in any fashion, but the only vintage postcard I've got. It depicts the S.S. Lapland, the ship my great-grandparents took across the Atlantic, migratin' from Belgium to the good ol' U.S. of A. From what I understand, this postcard came attached to the ship's menu for passengers to use.

  Yes, I like it when the cards were used like they were made to be. They had nice handwriting back then especially with the fountain pens.

  Awesome Red Belts and the others! I like when they're written on as well, too bad it hurts the grades.
