Michael SteeleI thought we had moved on to the T-206 Super thread but I guess not. Which is great. I like Ted's Theory of the Ramly Co. blocking rights on the Boston A.L. and others from the E90-1 set until later on in the print runs.
But 15 Boston A.L. cards in the Ramly set has been a very expensive thorn in my side
.
Ted: Here are 5 Boston A.L. players you missed that are in the Ramly set but not in the E-90-1:
Arrelanes
Cheech
Donahue
Spencer
Wagner (Heine)
What is interesting is the E-91C set came out about the same time (1910) as the last series of E-90-1 and the Red sox or Boston A.L are only in the E-91C set and Cinncinati is not represented at all in the E-91 sets. Of the 5 Players I mentioned above, 3 are in the E-91C set (Cheech, Donahue and Wagner).
In all of this, the one thing that is not consistent regarding Boston AL is the Cy Young Boston E-90-1 version. This card, unlike the rest of the Boston Al players, was not printed anywhere near the end or with the scarce cards.
