Item Description
3.50x5-3/8" vintage matte postcard pictures Negro League pitching great, Roy Partlow, during the early 1950s. Photographer's stamp on the back reads "Liberia De La Rosa - Jose Trujillo Valdez 21".

Partlow concluded his career spending two years with Granby of the Canadian Provincial League and posting records of 7-2 and 8-3 for the 1951 and 1952 seasons. In addition to the photographer's stamp on the back of the postcard, Partlow is identified in period ink along with a 1951-52 notation. Exc. From the Richard Merkin Collection and comes with Hake's COA.
