1967 Laughlin B/W World Series Assistance Needed

[JollyElm]

Hey Marty,
I can only speak for myself, but there isn't even an ounce of judgment in my use of the term "reprint" here. I am simply using it colloquially to refer to additional printings. Nothing more.

It was interesting reading the article you posted. Since I have discovered no fewer than ten cards (so far) from the set that have distinct differences in the artwork/layout, I wish I was closer to determining when the printings took place. Since the variations match the (later) 'no address' versions of the cards, there are two possibilities. Either Mr. Laughlin made changes to the artwork, and then printed the cards again (sometime after 1967) with the address on them, and at some point (1974?) printed them again after removing the address from the back...or he changed the artwork in the middle of the original printing of the cards, and perhaps had no additional reissues until the 1974 date. Both examples leave two versions of the ten 'with address' cards I mentioned. I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and ask him exactly when those changes to the graphics were made, but unless I win mega-millions on Tuesday, a time machine is probably still out of my price range. Oh well.
