E97 Young question
I tried searching this just now and didn't see a conclusive answer, so do E97 Boston cards that say Cy Young, go for Cy Young prices even though they clearly don't show him? The reason I ask is that the set shows two Boston players who were gone by 1908, Sullivan and Kelley and two others that were in Boston in 1908. Irv Young was a pitcher for the Boston Doves in 1908 and he was often referred to as "Cy" or Cy the Second" which would've been too long to put on a card. I read a lot on him recently, while writing about his acquisition by the Pirates during that 1908 season.
I honestly don't think the card has any caption error. I think it is a 1908 card(set designation says 1909-10 now) and it was meant to be Irv Young. Just wondering what the opinion is on the card
