Yes, that would make a ton of sense. If so, he definitely relented in time for 1934 Goudey's third series (49-72) and the 1935 series of Diamond Stars. I've been unable to determine whether Batter Up introduced any NEW cards in 1935, so for the moment I'll say "...1936 Batter Up" though perhaps 1935 Batter Up really is correct. (The distinction is something I'm actively researching at the moment.)
