As for the team name, the New York Americans were often called the Yankees as well s the Highlanders. The T205s from the prior year carried that name on the card fronts as did some of the back descriptions. T202 apparently stuck with the same theme.
Nice digging Todd. My assumption that the writeup on the back wasn't an early version of fake news was accurate.
