As I noted in above post......Donlin's batting record

"1899 - 1912 he batted at an average of .331
The more games he played the better he batted....1905 BA = .356 (150 games)"

The only time he batted under .300 was in 1902 when he played in only 34 games and batted .294

But, you are correct, this Coupon card of him is a 1913 issue and his BB career had ended. So, per-
haps it was some kind of tribute to him to indicate that he was a career .300+ hitter.

I don't recall seeing other Coupon cards with this added info in their caption....can anyone confirm
or correct this ?
