COMMENTS / CONDITION: Offered is an approximately 3-1/2"x5-1/2" real photo postcard of Joe Judge, pictured in his Washington Senators uniform circa 1929-32. The original photo was taken by George Burke in 1929-32, but this card was produced some time later (no earlier than the 1950's judging by the standard Kodak back). Comes from a large collection of such postcards that we will be listing over the coming months, all having standard postcard backs but being postally unused. Wear on these, if any, is mostly confined to minor corner and edge wear, but see scans for further details including condition. We do not deal in stock images or modern reprints, and all scans shown are of the actual item being sold. If you have any questions about a particular piece, please ask before the auction ends.

BIO: Joseph Ignatius Judge was born in Brooklyn, NY and died in 963 in Washington, DC. He played major league baseball from 95 to 934 as st baseman for the Washington Senators, Brooklyn Dodgers and the Boston Red Sox, and appeared in the 924 and 925 World Series. Following his retirement as a player, Judge coached the Georgetown University baseball team between 936 and 958, except for two seasons of service as a Senators coach in 945-46 under Ossie Bluege, who was now the manager. With his 946 service, Judge barely qualified for the newly established pension system; his initial $250 investment qualified him for a $50 monthly pension after he turned 63. He was offered the Senators managing job after the 947 season, but declined due to his desire to not travel heavily.
