Default Question for the T206 experts

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

Shoeless Joe, as I'm sure you know, played very few games his first 3 years (1908-1910).
Then in 1911 he was in 147 games and batted .408. By early 1911, production of the T206
set was completed.

There is also another factor that I have theorized, and that is American Caramel (E90-1)
beat T206 to the "punch" and owned the rights to portray him. His first 2 years was with
the Phila. A's.....Am. Caramel's hometown player.
