Hi Ryan,
The SCD article has a couple of different checklist additions in it. The Hornsby mentioned was from a different set.
The part of the article about the additions to the 1910 All Star Baseball set starts in the middle column of the bottom part of the page and continues on the right column on the top of the page.
The cards, like a handful of other "E" cards of the period, were cut from the sides of a candy box produced by Dockman & Sons (who was also one of the brands found on the backs of E92 cards).
Since these were cut from the sides of a candy box, they are blank backed, but they are known to have been produced by Dockman & Sons as there are at least two complete boxes known to exist.
I don't own either of the complete boxes but I'm adding images of one of the complete boxes that used to be owned by Lew Lipset.
Here is the current known checklist of 24 cards in the set.
