Both N28 & N29 were produced in 1888.

Previous threads by Hal Lewis, John Drecker, Jerry Spillman and others point out that Clarkson, who was traded from Chicago to Boston on April 3rd, 1888 is shown with Boston in the N28 set. Also, Bennett's N28 shows him in a "pin stripped" Detroit uniform. Detroit didn't use pinstripes until 1888. The N29 & N43 set were later 1888 issues.
