Thanks for posting that. Do you know if that same, specific graphic was used in earlier ads?

Going against conventional wisdom, my research forces me to theorize that when these cards were first reprinted, they did indeed have the address on back before it was eliminated for good. Don't know if this was close to 1967, or many years later, but something appears to be up.

If anyone has copies of the 1905 Matty card, with or without address, I'd like to see those, too.

It's like I've fallen into a black hole...and I don't know if I'll ever get out.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
