Default Checklist complete(!) (?)

With help of my travel agent, who has an account to newspapers.com, I was able to add to (and I believe complete) the catalog of these issues today :

These are the covers of and headlined "Sport Section Extraordinary" at the top with the date :
April 4, 1915 Political Cartoon (baseball)
April 11, 1915 Baseball Day Dreams

These are the covers of and headlined "Color Sport Supplement" at the top with the date :
April 18, 1915 x - not baseball
April 25, 1915 Cartoon about teams taking NL pennant
May 2, 1915 x - not baseball
May 9, 1915 Jack Miller
May 16, 1915 Harry Sallee
May 23, 1915 Derrill Pratt
May 30, 1915 Tommy Long
June 6, 1915 John Tobin
June 13, 1915 Bert Shotton
June 20, 1915 Grover Lowdermilk / William Doak
June 27, 1915 Carl Weilman / Eddie Plank
July 4, 1915 Otis Crandall / Zinn Beck
July 11, 1915 Lee Meadows / Urban Faber
July 18, 1915 Ty Cobb / Jake Daubert
July 25, 1915 Larry Doyle / Lee Magee
Aug 1, 1915 Bennie Kauff / Vic Saier
Aug 8, 1915 Tris Speaker / George Burns
Aug 15, 1915 Rabbit Maranville / Eddie Collins
Aug 22, 1915 Ray Schalk / Frank Snyder
Aug 29, 1915 Altrock / Schaefer / Jennings
Sept 5, 1915 Herzog, Huggins / Bresnahan / Carrigan
Sept 12, 1915 George Sisler
Sept 19, 1915 Mamaux / Betzel / Koob
Sept 26, 1915 Joe Wood / Grover Alexander

These are in color on the back of the "Color Sport Supplement". All except the Feds Team are noted as "Superlatives in Sport" or "One of Sport's Superlatives" :
July 4, 1915 Feds Team
Aug 8, 1915 Harry Howell
Aug 22, 1915 Christy Mathewson
Sept 12, 1915 Charles Comiskey (owner)
Sept 19, 1915 Hank O'Day (umpire)
Sept 26, 1915 John Tener (league pres)

The 9 issues between and including April 11 thru June 6 also have a color full page "Bert Bush's First Game" cartoon.

I believe these to be the complete listing of all full page color baseball pages issued by the St. Louis Globe-Democrat in 1915. Apologies if I missed any.

I am still looking for copies of all of these shown below, and a few others.
