My 2nd Frederick Foto proof
Added another Frederick Foto proof to go along with my Oscar Stanage example. The card pictures Bobbie Schang, Wally Schang's brother.
As Rhett suggests these larger examples may have been used as proofs to create the smaller actual Frederick Foto cards which have a border.
Both of my examples have the spots of glue at the corners and mid-way along the back of the cards. In addition, both of my examples have blue ink stamps stating "Frederick Foto Service 718 1/2 Jay Sacramento," however, the Schang card's stamp is upside down.
There is no doubt that the cards were issued in multiple years since numerous players did not start with their teams until 1922.
