Default SURVEY..is your T206 Joe Doyle a rare variation ?

Posted By: Pennsylvania Ted

JOE

Why are you starting with the 1997 SCD ?.....The very 1st SCD price guide in 1987 listed this Doyle as "Jim Doyle".
Now, I don't know you, or anyone, can blame Krause as the cause of this "mix-up" ?
It is certainly conceivable, given the coincidence of two Doyle's appearing on the roster in 1910, that the Sporting
Life (M116) designers got them confused.

Therefore, I do not know how anyone can be certain which of these two Doyle's (Jim or Joe) on the Cincy team was
intended by the M116 designers. Jim Doyle played in 7 games....Joe Doyle pitched in only 3 games for Cincy.

The M116 set was issued in several series from 1910 to well into 1911. Yes, Lobert is depicted with Cincy in the
M116 set, as he was included in the very 1st series issued in 1910.
In Feb. 1911 he was traded to Philadelphia (NL).

I am very familiar with M116's....I have collected 260 diff. cards of this set and 20 of the Blue variations.
