Default opinion on Coupons Bobby Byrne...

Here are Bobby Byrne's 3 Coupon cards. He has one in each series. Many of the 1919 Type 3 cards are tribute cards of players that had retired. In many cases like Bridwell, who managed Houston in 1919, there is no team designation given. My grandfathers grew up in Central Louisiana and East Texas, and both were Cardinals fans. Since these cards were distributed in an area with Cardinals fans, the producers decided to include a tribute card in 1919 for Byrne, who retired in 1917. Ames and Miller are also in the 1919 set as Cardinals and played for St. Louis in 1919.
