Corridon

Shown with the St. Louis Cardinals, the back describes Corridon's move to Buffalo between the 1910 and 1911 seasons. Would have been nice if they had made a Buffalo card for him.

As eye appealing as the fronts are, I also really enjoy reading the backs...the language is so proper compared to today.

Jake Daubert
Jake Daubert grew up in the Pennsylvania coal mining region (not far from where we live). He was an outstanding 1st
Baseman. His batting and fielding performances were considered as the National League's equivalent of Hal Chase at 1st base. https://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan...aubertT205.jpg . https://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan...SweetCap42.jpg NOTE....... you are forcing us to follow your strict alphabetical order ruling. AND it's not working ! ! Only TWO T205 inputs today. Members are losing interest in this game. The previous 3 games (T206 commons, T206 HOFers, T205 HOFers) were free-spirited and were a lot of fun for all. Anyhow, now I am posting my Jake Daubert card out of order. Several days ago I posted my Bergen card one short of its position on your list. You ignored it and posted your Bergen card. What are you, some kind of control freak ? And, I won't be surprised if you ignore my Daubert card, too. TED Z T206 Reference . |

Have you seen evidence of T205 cards indicating they were "vertically Double-Printed (like the T206's were) ? Check-out the back of my Eddie Collins card. Due to it's mis-printed back, it reveals to us that this Eddie Collins card was Double-Printed (horizontally). Now, that's a new bit of information for us. https://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan...smiscut50x.jpg . https://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan...insWCbk50x.jpg TED Z T206 Reference . |
Ted, I always like seeing your Collins - it’s unique and helps tell the story of how these cards were made.
I believe that some backs were printed to repeat horizontally like your Collins open month Polar Bear. And some that were printed to repeat vertically, like the Devlin above. I have never seen any case in which the same card was printed side-by-side _and_ adjacent vertically on the same sheet. (That is, 4 card parts visible, all the same card). But then again, I’ve never seen _any_ example of a T205 where I could see 4 identifiable card parts on the same card. |
Here is a nice Josh Devore Sweet Cap...the middle card of 3 Giants in a row...Devlin, Devore, and next up is Dickson...Dickson is an interesting inclusion in the set considering he had only pitched 29 innings in the majors at the time and started just 1 gamehttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...48a814a27c.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bfbd90d65f.jpg

Thanx gonzo Your scan of Devlin was not in your post when I started replying to you. Your Devlin is the first T205 vertically mis-cut card that I have seen. Really neat. Whereas, there are many, many such T206's cards. Perhaps, by 1911, American Lithographic's Quality Assurance department had greatly improved. TED Z T206 Reference . |

Here's Doolan, and a quick word on the T205 Donohue White Sox card. It is a tribute card. As the back mentions, he was the Galveston Sand Crabs manager in 1911. His last full season with the Sox was 1908. In 1909, he played 2 games for them.

Elberfeld
6 Attachment(s)
Kid Elberfeld had a career OBP of .355 across 14 MLB seasons. His fiery temper involved him in numerous ferocious arguments and assaults on umpires.
During Ty Cobb's rookie season, Cobb slid headfirst into second base, only to have Elberfeld dig his knee into the back of Cobb's neck, grinding his face in the dirt. It was the last time Cobb slid headfirst; from then on Cobb slid spikes first. https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189750 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189778 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189792 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189804 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189882 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595189891 |

Here is an American Beauty Evans.
He led the NL in being hit by pitched balls each year from 1910 to 1912, setting a single-season record of 31 in 1910 that stood for 61 years before it was finally broken by Ron Hunt. He also set the record for being hit by a pitch in a single game, being hit three times in a game against Brooklyn.

Dolly Gray No Stats
2 Attachment(s)
By the time he reached 30, "Dolly" Gray had already produced an excellent career in the PCL -- so excellent that he is a member of the Pacific Coast League Hall of Fame. Then, in 1909 he joined Washington in the American League.
His MLB performance was less than excellent, producing a 15-51 career record. And most of the noteworthy accomplishments were negative -- he holds a record for walking eight batters in one inning, including seven in a row. But in April 1911, as Washington opened what would come to be known as Griffith Stadium (and cigarettes came with brightly-colored, gold-bordered baseball cards), Gray got the start against Smoky Joe Wood. Gray would win the game, a high-point in his otherwise disappointing 2-13 final MLB season. https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595330374 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595330380 |

Bob Groom -- Shoots and Ladders
6 Attachment(s)
Bob Groom's otherwise mundane career (288 starts over ten years, 119-150 record), had spectacular high and low points.
Right off the bat, Groom nose-dived to record low territory: in 1909, as an MLB rookie (after five seasons in the PCL), he laid a huge egg -- 19 consecutive losses, a record which has only been equaled once. But, he continued to pitch, eventually won a few and then, in 1917 while pitching for the St. Louis Browns, Groom soared to exceptional height: he no-hit the eventual World Champion Chicago White Sox 3–0. And, the no-hitter came in the second game of a double-header. Earlier, Groom had preserved the win in the first game by pitching the last two innings without allowing a hit. Groom's no-hitter also came the day after teammate Ernie Koob's 1–0 no-hitter against the White Sox. Koob and Groom are still the only teammates to pitch no-hitters on consecutive days. https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406594 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406606 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406617 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406627 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406635 https://www.net54baseball.com/attach...1&d=1595406646 |
