This Sporting Life (M116) card depicting Joe Doyle is another "mix-up" error.

Were the M116 designers intending to portray Joe Doyle who pitched in only 3 games for Cincy in 1910......
or,
were they intending to portray Jim Doyle, the 3rd baseman for Cincy in 1910-11, who played in 137 games ?

What's your guess ?


This is really amazing..FOUR chances to get it right.....the Rose p/c.....the initial T206 of Joe Doyle (Nat'l);
and, the "corrected" (omitting the League affiliation).....and, this M116 card depicting him (but, most likely
intended to portray Jim Doyle).......and, all four times they "screwed-up" !

Judd Bruce "Slow Joe" Doyle just "doesn't get any respect".....way before Rodney Dangerfield ever coined
that expression.
