I wish I had a few of the Connie Mack cards. (Hmmm his team was the Philadelphia Americans.)

Well now... that's great but I don't have all the info to decode.
I'm going to have to see if the old external code was used.

So the old external dosnt work.
I'm assuming the new external is Connie as that's the name on the ball card and it's the right length.
However there is no indication on what the letter is used to code to get the eternal message indicator.
So I have the machine set, have what I'm guessing is the external message indicator set, and am at a stand still until I get that letter.
On a side note I did try X as the letter but that is just there to fill out the spaces.

Connie Mack had a long time association with the Philadelphia A's (so maybe an A ?) Their logo just happened to be a white elephant...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Using CONNIE as the internal I get
NORPH OF OR CLOSG TO NAVAL YAND
Obviously some misspelling but you get the idea.

MrToasty I didn't even think of the obvious.
Well caught.
So I'm guessing it's actually going to be the Philidelphia?

Guessing this area? https://maps.google.com/maps?q=philadelphia+navy+yard&hnear=Philadelphia+Navy+Yard&gl=us&t=h&z=15
Notice there are ball fields north of the yard.

Nice pic Mr. Toasty.
Notice the Franklin Delinor Roosevelt golf course, and the Ball fields are in FDR Park. There is also an FDR skate park which I find ironically named after a man that could hardly walk.

I wonder if there is any significance to the misspelling?

I didn't get any misspellings when I double checked it a few minutes ago. So I'm guessing not.

I can't resist:
I TOLD YOU SO:
Really though, just some guesswork, and the fact that I'm sure I'm one of the biggest Athletics baseball team fans (even if not living in Northern California).
Go A's !
