Ryan surprised me by including a bunch of postcards featuring Giants players in the package he sent me last week. They appear to be from the mid-1970's:
|
Shozo Doi |
|
Isao Harimoto |
|
Tsuneo Horiuchi |
|
Shigeo Nagashima |
|
Hisao Niura |
|
Toshimitsu Suetsugo |
Assuming they're all from the same set or issued at the same time they can be from no earlier than 1976 (since Harimoto didn't join the Giants until then) and no later than 1977 (Suetsugo's final season). Since Suetsugo only played in 3 game in 1977 the postcards are most likely from
1977 1976.
Here's what the back of Harimoto's postcard looks like:
I don't know what the text on the bottom left says but I do recognize Harimoto's name in it. The text is different on each card.

The bottom left looks like it says "Hit Manufacturing Machine" according to the quick and dirty Google Translate.
Oh, cool. I'm guessing each one has some phrase about the player. Thanks!
