The type 1 cursive script names series, with the OJ banner at top, a credit to J. Wood, and Goodwin at the bottom without any card numbers. 17 or 18 different cards plus some variations.
These are one of the most common types, although I do believe that there is uneven production of the set. I believe Mitchell (White name) is less common. I have seen Jack Dempsey (Suit, chest up) listed with this release instead of the numbered set. I have not seen a photo of this card that seems to lack a number in the upper right, but the fading and poor aging of this set sometimes makes the numbers difficult to determine even if they are present without a close examination.
I have not secured a photo of Burke with the banner centered.
