There was a fantastic article about this set written by Robert Silverman in OldCardboard (issue #8 2006) entitled: "1907-1909 (PC 765) Dietsche Postcards: The Gateway to Pre-War PC Collecting."
And boy, was that title correct. The Dietsche was definitely my gateway drug. Here are three great images from the article. One image (upper left) is of the envelope which contained the 15 cards in the 1907 Dietsche Tigers set. Next to it is a photo of an ad which shows the 15 cards. The "fielding" Cobb was released later that Year, and was presumably not in the original set of 15. At the bottom is a great image of the store in Detroit where these cards were sold by Mr. Dietsche himself.
I know this post shouldn't be in BST, but since we were on the topic, i thought I would share.
