Default T213-2 Coupon Bill Chapelle variation

Posted By: Rob McKenzie

The 1999 SCD that I have states that the T213-2 Coupon cards were issued between 1914-1916. The checklist has #29 as Bill Chapelle (one p) Brooklyn 'R' on shirt and #30 Larry Chapelle (Chappel) no 'R' on shirt Cleveland.

According to the registry I have, Larry Chappel played outfield in 3 games for Cleveland in 1916 and Bill Chappelle was a pitcher whose last year was with Brooklyn in 1914.

Is the card in this auction supposed to be the "Larry Chappel" # 30 as listed in the 99 SCD?...

The picture is still of Bill Chappelle from the T206 set. The printer must have confused the 2 players. If these are the only 2 variations, then it seems like #30 should be designated as "Bill Chappelle, error Cleveland" since the card still pictures Bill Chappelle, not Larry Chappel.


Anyone else have any other confusing variations in this set?
