I suspect that demand was strong for the photos and Pinkerton went from an expensive mount to a much cheaper mount. I don't have any real evidence for my opinion other than watching this particular issue for a number of years.
Jeff,
Of note this example on construction paper mount is a Philadelphia player. I have another one on construction paper mount that is also a Phili A. What player do you have? If yours is an A's player, maybe this is yet another subset done only of one particular team.
