Why is Roy Ellam on Nashville in the T206 Set?
I have the RPPC for Ellam that was used for his T206 card. It shows him on the Connorsville team, which, according to Baseball Reference, he was on in 1908:
https://www.baseball-reference.com/r...d=ellam-001roy I couldn't help noticing that he didn't join Nashville until 1916, and yet his T206 card lists him with Nashville. Does anyone know why this error was made?

There's been threads about this before. I believe I even started one. Consensus seems to be it's just a mistake and an amazing coincidence if I recall.

Interestingly, there was a guy named Win Kellum that played with Nashville in 1909.

I frantically read those threads... hoping that I didn't have a post in them!
 Thank you both for posting - I think the Kellum theory might be a good one. Quote:

I’m hurt.
I started an Ellam thread in December 2011. I get “no respect” around here.

I discovered this Connellsville postcard about 12 years ago and knew that it matched up to his T206 while it was still live on an "ebay live" auction (remember those). I sweated that one out but apparently was the only one to notice it. I sold mine to someone on Net54 but don't recall who.
