Default It's actually a 1917 set

Some years back it was determined this was a 1917 set. The big book says it sold in 1991 for $45,100; in 1997 for $46,000 and in 2001 for $50,330.

Greg Manning reprinted the set in 1992. The reprints are 2" x 3", slightly bigger than the 1-11/16" x 2-3/4" originals. The banned players' reprint cards have a black frame added to the front and some data and stats on back. Manning also issued a colorized Joe Jackson.
