I haven't checked my cards, yet, but, was looking around on eBay. ChampsandBums has a type of police captain series that has "Ballin & Liebler Lith N.Y." "Copyrighted 1888". They have a second police capt. design that says Julius Bien copyright 1887. The actors and jockeys I looked at had the Julius Bien trademark and 1887, which puts the van der ahe in that sub-type of cards, unless someone has a Van der ahe without a Jules Bien back. I'll post some more tomorrow. (pic from champsandbums ebay listing)(actor pic is one I lifted a while back off of an ebay listing, not my card, for reference purposes...)
I only have the non-sport guide, the SCD, and Lipset checklists. Would also like to see a full checklist. Although at least one of the police card types were made in 1888 and still reference baseball on the back, I don't know if the baseball cards were also continuously released after 1887 or not, but it seems they may have been.
