I love finding local baseball memorabilia. Sure, there are no major leaguers here, but how cool is this postcard of a local game being played in a cleared hayfield? I'll have to contact the Schaumburg Historical Society and see if they can tell me where the "Schaumburg Ball Grounds" were located. There's no writing on the card, and it was never mailed, so best I can determine photo is circa 1910-1919. I work in Schaumburg (25 miles NW of Chicago) and used to live here, so significant to me. I love seeing the spectators with a car parked on the sideline, and the umpire standing next to the pitcher. Amazing both how much the game has changed in 100 years and yet how it is basically the same.
