Double Trouble

[Vintagecatcher]

As I impatiently wait for a Art Wilson Sweet Caporal Pin to show up on eBay, I noticed that there is a double error in the Domino Disc set.

Both Owen "Chief" Wilson and Art Wilson are in the Domino Disc set.

The correct team for each is Art played for the Giants and Owen for the Pirates.

Both players are shown in the set with Giants and Pirates team affiliations.

Nice disks. Yes, that error was noted by Lipset in his Encyclopedia. Please let me know if you ever see either Wilson properly identified on a disk with a purple/plum/brown/whatever color that is front. I believe that disks with that color only feature the"wider face" version of players, and were in the earlier print runs. I assume the Wilson error was not caught in those print runs, but haven't chased the set in some time now, so I don't follow sales closely.

As a collector you have to have a collector mentality to love the minutiae in our hobby. Thanks for the info, guys.

Here are a few random PX7s from my old collection..
