Default Another 1907 Red Belts postcard question??
Posted By: Robert S

Claude,

I'm the guy who made the Red Belt identifications (concurrently on Net54 and the VintageBall site). The Moran mention simply was a mistake -- plain and simple.

Of course, it was interesting to see the SCD Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards pick up all the identifications and add them to their checklist (including the mistake). And...since they took all the info from these IDs (and others on VintageBall) without attribution or a credit in the acknowledgements, they get to take credit for the mistake as well!

It's been corrected on VintageBall.com.

Also, I agree it does resemble Huggins, but who knows?
