Default 1915 St Louis Globe Democrat Color Sport Supplements

I received one of these today in finishing a trade with a board member (thank you, Clint) and a question he asked leads me to post this question :

How many of these are there on the "checklist"?

They are full sized newspaper pages, approximately 17 X 23 inches.

Here is what I have :

April 25 - Cartoon about teams taking NL pennant
June 27 - Carl Weilman & Eddie Plank (popular players)
July 4 - Feds (team)
July 11 - Lee Meadows & Urban Faber (pitching sensations)
July 18 - Ty Cobb & Jake Daubert (batting stars)
July 25 - Larry Doyle & Lee Magee (batting stars)
Aug 1 - Bennie Kauff & Vic Saier (base stealers)
Aug 8 - Tris Speaker & George Burns (outfield)
Aug 15 - Rabbit Maranville & Eddie Collins (both sides of second sack)
Aug 22 - Ray Schalk & Frank Snyder (catchers)
Aug 29 - Altrock, Schaefer & Jennings (coaches)

Those are all noted as "Color Sport Supplement" with the date at the top.

I also have a color page from :
Sept 12 - Charles Comiskey (owner)
Sept 19 - Hank O'Day (umpire)

I assume there something in the Sept 5 issue, and I would be curious to see if there are any other "Color Sport Supplements" from before June 27 or after Aug 29.

Does anybody have any that I haven't listed? Does anybody have any info on these issues? Does anybody have any thoughts on these issues?

Thanx,
Doug
