No.457132 first appeared in Ideal Handbook No.9, c.1897.

The Georgia Volunteer team won the Regimental Interstate Team match at Seagirt, NJ, in 1895 and 1896. At the 1896 matches, the Georgia Volunteers place first in 11 of the 23 matches for which they qualified to participate.

Apparently, the designation "Postell" comes from Captain J. C. Postell, 1st Cavalry, Georgia Volunteers.
