The checklist in the SCD is incomplete and only 1/2 done is because it is new, it was just started in last couple years and not all cards have been verified yet. It should grow fast and be close to complete in next couple years/issues I would think. Not only Holsum cards but all the related sets have photos that are from E135 and E121, the E135 photos are the ones with the white backgrounds. The set was thought to be from 1920 for a while only because of the Black Sox players in the set. I cant remember exactly why it was changed back to 1921 but it must have been a player shown with a certain team that only makes in 1921 or later. We have posted about the Holsum cards many times in last couple years, Im sure there is more info from back then as well. Just waiting for the Holsum Buck Weaver to show up.
