Default Sgc

Another issue that causes confusion is SGC's pop report. They correctly list a pop report for 1916 D329 and for 1917 D328, but they also have a listing for 1916 D328. I think this listing contains cards that are a mix of 1916 and 1917 cards.

For instance, they list #44 Larry Doyle. Doyle is #44 in the 1917 D328 set but SGC has this card listed under 1916 D328. The same applies to several other cards in this pop report. So, are they 1916's or 1917's? #159 Tom Seaton should be a 1916 D329 but it is listed as a 1916 D328.

I made SGC aware of this problem well over a year ago. They emailed me and said they would check it out but it doesn't appear that any changes have been made. I tried to access their pop report site today to verify this, but the site was down.

I don't have a lot of knowledge about the Weils. Did Weil issue cards in 1916 that were similar to the Collins-McCarthy set or did SGC just screw up?

I'm not trying to be negative about SGC because I know how difficult it is to get a handle on these sets, but I would like to clarify this issue.

Thanks,
Rick
