Can anyone explain why Cy Young appears to be wearing a Philadelphia Athletics uniform on this card? He never played for the A's. He left Cleveland in mid-1911 and went to Boston. I suppose he could have worked out with the A's before signing with the Braves.
The problem with this explanation is that this card has a Series 350 back, so it would have been printed before the 1911 season even began. So can anyone explain this uniform?
