List of sets with incorrect years recorded..

[DanP]

I'd like to put together a list of sets that PSA, SGC, SCD, etc have recorded/labeled incorrectly.

I'll start with some "mistakes" I've learned about from this forum:
32 US Caramel --> 33
07-09 Novelty Cutlery --> 09-11?
16-20 W-UNC Strip Cards --> 19-21?
36 Canadian Goudey --> 37
48 Leaf --> 49
08 E91 --> 09?

More?

Thanks!

I think r315, forget years, but probably issued over a couple years

I was always under the impression that the American Caramel E91A set came out in 1908, E91B in 1909 and E91C in 1910. Is this incorrect?

I have some real doubts that the R314 Goudey "creamy" Joe DiMaggio premium is in fact a 1937, rather than 1936 (true rookie) issue, as it pictures Joe not in his Yankees,' but San Francisco Seals uniform, which he would have last worn in 1935. Seems to me a '37 issue, after the break-in rookie campaign Joltin' Joe put in (.323, 29 HR's) would have seen to it that DiMag appeared in Yankee garb. I know the Standard Catalog now contends this is indeed a 1937 issue, but I think I've seen PSA label it both ways.

Comments most welcome.

The W560s have been discussed here as being catalogued incorrectly. It can't be a 1927 set, and is probably a 1929 issue (or later?). Is that that the kind thing you are looking for?

Yes, thanks!

I agree with George. The W560 set contains Foxx, which would seem highly unlikely absent some psychic prowess on the part of the manufacturer, as Jimmie's first year of any note at all would have been 1928 (.328, 13 HR's in 400 at bats), with his first real Foxx-type year occurring in 1929 (.354, 33 HR's). 1929 at the absolute earliest.

Good thread, Dan.

I think the 1939-46 Salutation Exhibits that were printed after '46, which I believe can usually be determined by the use of "Printed" amongst other things, should be treated as a secondary issue, rather than be considered '39-46. Basically, the ones with the captions that fit the time period should stay as listed, while the others should be considered a post '46 salutation exhibit.

1917 Collins-McCarthy E135. Many of the blank backs were originally listed as 1916 by the grading companies.

Rob, I may be wrong about that one. I can't remember where I read it!

the R314-4 DiMaggio is in fact a 1937 issue, ..... there is a Bobby Doerr card in the set.

off hand can only think of one not mentioned yet...

1948 Old Gold Jackie Robinson (2 dif) should be 1947 and included with his rookies (back bio says born 28 years ago)
