ok...thanks Jay....Point well taken. Until otherwise proven definitively I agree with you. I can think of reasons to advertise it later, as I stated, but your analysis makes sense. That being said I wouldn't fall out of my rocker if we found an ad for the cards saying something different. So I guess the summation is we believe the cards that advertise the 1869 book to be from 1869 and the others may or may not be....would that be correct?
edited to add - Jay and I spoke and all is ok in Peck-and-Snydersvillle ,.....always my pleasure.
