Description

For the Baseball Hobbyist. . . 2017 Major League Baseball Postcard #18 - MARCUS SEMIEN, Oakland Athletics ~ #xxx/500* A Numbered Limited Edition of just 500 issued by Photo File This vibrant 4" by 6" full-color photo postcard was issued by Photo File in 2017 - one of an edition of 20** cards. A very limited edition of just 500 impressions - each being individually numbered! Photo File cards are the only officially licensed postcards by Major League Baseball. The front features an unobstructed full color photograph of a major baseball star while the reverse identifies the player with his position and team affiliation. *Most significantly, the limited edition status (#XXX / 500) is noted just above the card number. Just 500 examples of this card exist. The scans: The first scan shows a representative card (front view) while scans 2-3 are also representative of the reverse side from different orientations. Reminiscent of the popular - and scarce - Bill and Bob Milwaukee Braves postcards of the mid-1950s, this card is a candidate for any hall (or wall) of fame.

Our primary objective is to sell cards and other things of interest to baseball hobbyists - not make money by overcharging on shipping. If you ever believe you are being overcharged on shipping, please email us and we will double-check the facts of the matter. Thank you! U.S. residents : We combine multiple items purchased so you pay only the shipping on the heaviest item - all other items ship free of charge. (An exception would be if an item must be sent via media/book rate.) All Other Countries: Email us first. Many listings indicate shipment to U.S. or U.S. & Canada only, but we actually ship worldwide. To receive your combined shipping, please wait for us to send you a combined invoice. The eBay checkout system usually displays an incorrect shipping charge. (It is normally too high.) Please do not pay for each item separately; if you pay separately, there is no shipping discount. We pack your order carefully - sandwiching cards between cardboard and utilizing boxes, bubble wrap, etc., as necessary - to ensure your items arrive in the condition you expect. Items are shipped the next business day. We ship 5 - usually 6 - days each week. Payment should be made within 7 days after invoice has been received.
