Am I missing something here?
 
Posted By: <b>TBob</b><p>This card is described as an E-90-1 Clarke Pittsburg, rare. The card is not the variation but the more common Clarke Philadelphia as the caption where it has the team clearly says "Phila." I have both so I know the difference. These eyes, however, are getting old so does anyone disagree this description is all wrong?<BR><BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2720910359&ssPageName= MERC01" target=_new>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2720910359&ssPageName= MERC01</a>

Posted By: <b>MW</b><p>You are correct. Unless Pittsburg was once abbreviated "Phila.," the description appears to be entirely wrong.

Posted By: <b>harry</b><p>My eyes are probably not much better than yours, but this card definitely says Phila. The owner probably thinks that the variation lies with his uniform.<BR><BR>The corrected "Pitts." version is actually crudely fixed and you can still see the original "Phila." underneath it. Can anyone post a picture?

Posted By: <b>Julie</b><p>The card IS a bit confusing with "Phila." in the caption and "Pittsburgh" on his uniform...
