Great, Jerry. Thanks for posting that. Mr. Egan organized and listed those cards by team. I well understand why today many folks sort alphabetically. But if they'd spread those cards out on a table, sort 'em by team, and then within each team by series, they'd then begin to notice the style of the cards. For example, with the Cubs you'd see "Cubs" on the jerseys on the early cards, and "Chicago" vertically down the front of the shirt along the button holes on the later cards. Thanks again, Jerry.
