barrysloateI've always assumed Boston Garter was issued for three years: the suitcase and garter set in 1912, the color diamond set in 1913, and the black and white photographic set in 1914. But it now appears there was one set issued in 1912, and two issued in 1914.
First, SGC labels all the diamond cards as 1914. And the card of Charlie Herzog not only has all his stats through the 1913 season, but the back also states: "Manager of Cincinnati National League team for season of 1914." It would be hard to imagine this as a 1913 set with that back information.
Can any experts add anything and date these three issues definitively?
