Default T213-2 cards

Hi Rob

Like you, I find it quite interesting that T213-2 cards actually provide us a pretty good idea of when American Litho issued certain
cards. For example, displayed here are Ames and Devore. The NY Giants traded both of these guys to Cincinnati on May 22, 1913.

Ames (Cincinnati) is shown here, and I think the T213-2 Devore (Cincinnati) card exists.

Subsequently, Ames was acquired by St Louis Nat. (July 24, 1915). I have seen a T213-2 Ames (St Louis Nat.) card.

Devore was acquired by the Philadelphia Phillies on Aug 11, 1913 (from Cinci.). His T213-2 card is shown here.

Devore retired from MLB in 1915....and became part-owner (and Player-Manager) of the Chillicothe Babes (Ohio Minor League team).
There is a T213-2 card of Devore with a Chillicothe caption.

Hey guys, let's explore some more of these T213-2 subjects who played on several teams during the 1913 - 1915 timeline of this set.
