1972 Yawkey Red Sox question
 

Hi guys,
Does anyone have any information on the distribution of what is knows as the "1972 Yawkey Red Sox" set?
Specifically, I am curious if the set was issued )or re-issued) over the course of several years.
I question the issue year of 1972, unless the set was indeed re-issued.

Within the set, 3 players are listed with dates of their death between 1973 and 1976.
George Dickey 6/16/76
Lefty Grove 5/22/75
Roy Johnson 9/11/73
additionally the Pinky Higgins back mentions Hobson breaking Higgin's record for 3rd base RBI's in '77

What makes me wonder if it was re-issued, 3 players dies between 1974 and 1976 that are not noted on the reverse.
George Hockette d 1/20/74 (not noted on card)
Jim Henry d 8/15/76 (not noted on card)
Wes Ferrell d 12/9/76 (not noted on card)

I have uploaded scans of my entire set on TCDB. If anyone has any backs that don't match mine, I would love to find out.

Thanks for looking,
Scott
