    Description

    Baseball Stadium Sacred Heart College Prairie du Chien, WISCONSIN WI c.1910
    For bid is an original, photo-litho postcard of the baseball grounds at Sacred Heart College in Prairie du Chien, WI.
    Sacred Heart College, later renamed Campion College, was
    founded in 1880. It was established by German Jesuits and trained people to serve in various capacities within the Roman Catholic Church. In 1888, the college closed to
    lay
    students, but in 1898, it reopened to the laity as both a high school and college. The college was renamed Campion College in 1913. Though it closed in 1925, the associated high school, Campion High School, remained in operation until 1975. The card was
    published by A.C. Bosselman & Co., NY, for John T. Faber, Milwaukee (pub #5918), and was made in Germany. The postcard measures 5 ½ x 3 ½ inches and is unposted. It is in
    VERY
    GOOD-EXCELLENT
    condition with modest corner wear.
    I am liquidating my long-time collection of stadium postcards and will be listing new items weekly as time permits.
