Default Question about York Caramels vs. the F50 Ice Cream Sets
Posted By: Dave

What makes the York Caramel set (particularly Type II) a 100% known 1927 issue and not 1928? Is there a specific player that is the determining factor?

I compared all the F50 issues and noticed the absence of Shawkey in the sets (which would confirm the 1928 designation since he retired in '27). Shawkey does appear in the York Caramels Type I issue.

So my question is whether anyone knows for certain that York Caramels Type II were a 1927 issue, and if so... what is the explanation?
