The exception to the name designations listed above are the Mike Gonzalez and Armando Marsans postcards that used the Felix Mendelsohn. As you can see above the original mike Gonzalez Felix Mendelsohn photo had his name and team designation placed on it. The makers of the Baseball postcards simply cropped the photo to their specifications and left the name and team as is.

Finally a point about the dating. The Baseball Postcards in question here have as their subjects all Cuban born players that debuted in the Major Leagues in the first quarter of the 20th Century. A breakdown of their Major League playing days shows the varying years the players appear in the majors.

Armando Marsans 1911-1918 (With Yankees 1917-1918)
Mike Gonzalez 1912-1932 (With Giants 1919-1921)
Adolfo Luque 1914-1935 (With Reds 1918-1929)
Emilio Palmero 1915-1916, 1921, 1926 & 1928 (With Giants 1915-1916)
Jose Acosta 1920-1922 (With Washington 1920-1921 and White Sox 1922)
Pedro Dibut 1923-1925 (With Reds 1924-1925)

Based on this I point to the Pedro Dibut card picturing him in Reds uniform. Since he played with the Reds in 1924 and 1925 I believe the earliest date possible for the production of the Cuban Baseball Postcards is 1924. This also makes sense because of the explosion in baseball card production in Cuba in 1924. Someone wanting to profit from this might want to make a postcard set that could be marketed in Cuba at the time.

In conclusion I speculate that what happened is this. The Eastern Exhibit Company produces the Eastern Exhibit set in 1922. Because they get sued and lose they or someone affiliated with them produces the Baseball Postcards set referred to by Adam in his book. That set uses the same subjects found in the Eastern Exhibit set, but in postcard form with no maker name affiliation. A little later (1924 or 1925) they produce the Cuban Baseball Postcards subset for the Cuban market. Let me know what any of you think.
