Jim ThierfelderI recently purchase a 1927 W560 of Sam Gray to give to a friend of mine (Sam Gray's neice). The card depicts Sam Gray as a member of the St Louis Browns. The problem is that Sam did not become a member of the Browns until he was traded by Connie Mack from the Athletic's in December of 1927. Were these cards produced that late in the year? Wrongly designated as 1927? Or were they produced over a period of time beginning in 1927?
I know they are designated as strip cards but actually came in sheets. But does anyone know how they were distributed?
Now that I have the card in hand, I am think about putting a set together as it would be something I could complete fairly cheap and in a relatively short period of time compared to the T206 set I am working on. Does anyone know where I can find a checklist?
