I have seen images of teams in Spring Training where the players are dressed in three, four and five different uniforms from past years.

Pics of those places are around, showing the left field wall from ground view was difficult to find. But yeah, spring training would throw the whole thing off like you said.

Im getting lost a bit, but Rick pointed out the spelling mistakes made. 805s had 4 spelling errors while the 796s only had Honas wrong, seems unlike then the 796s came first to only mess up 3 more players names after words.

Also, why are all the postmarks on the NCs in PA? I havent counted yet, but the 796 that just sold on ebay is also sent from PA.
