The old BBM was very current opposed to magazines today that seem to be printed months in advance. It was more like SPORTS ILLUSTRATED is today so I would think the ads signaled the opening of sales? Just my guess.

Does anyone have a baseball magazine from jan or feb 1924 to confirm this ? If this is accurate, it would then be safe to assume as fact that all photos used for the 1924 issue were images from 1923 or prior. This photo dating is what I am after . Thoughts???
