Default Pope and Clancy

T209 Series One Pope and T206 Clancy are pictured in front of the same building in the background. Take a look

Pope is pictured in a Raleigh uniform



Clancy is pictured in a Buffalo uniform



I suspect that the Contentnea cards were produced in NYC like the T206s and that the same artist may have been responsible for the background, but........

Have we ever figured out if the building in the background really existed?

Granted the building on Pope's card has 4 little doohickeys below the roof on the left side and on Clancy's card there are only 3 little doohickeys, but the similarity of the rendition of the building is otherwise striking. Artistic License??

Clancy played briefly for the Pirates in 1905 and then exclusively for both Buffalo and Rochester until 1912.

Ashley Pope was a nineteen year old rookie in 1909 for Raleigh and never played outside the South.

It does not appear they ever played close to one another in the 1908-1910 time span or at any other time for that matter.

Just wondering as this is the first time I have looked at the Series 1 Contentnea cards.

If I'm all wet, so be it (it wont be the first time). Just thought it was worth a post. Thanks for the website Michael, which should help educate the Contentnea novices on the board.

The site looks great Mike. Its not to friendly on my android phone though. Not sure if WordPress has a plugin for mobile use but they might.
