A wild theory of mine suggests that Ramly (Worcester, MA) had the rights to these players in 1909; therefore,
the American Caramel Co. could not portray these Boston players in their early series.

Hi Ted,
While I know there is a big difference between having rights and exercising rights, I have to note that there is no Speaker and no Hall in T204. Nor was there a B. Brown card or a Shean card in T204. Not so sure about the theory...
Cheers,
