John Freeman My last question caused quite a stir ("Old Judge Proofs?") -- hopfully this one will be more straightforward.
Lot #8 in Lew Lipset's online catalog is a M101-5 #151 Babe Ruth card which has a Sporting News back. The description states that cards with Sporting News backs are only known in the earlier M101-5 issue and not in the later M101-4. I was always under the assumption that Sporting News cards were found in both series. I thought for sure that I had seen a Jim Thorpe before.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
