photo matches his 1926 Sports Co. of America card (shown below).

The 1924 photo of WaJo matches his 1921-22 or 1922 (depending on the hobby reference) Schapira Bros. Big Show Candy card (shown below), and this puzzles me. Assuming the September 17, 1924, date in the caption on the back of this photo is correct, this suggests to me that the issue date for this card set has to be later than that shown in hobby references. Might there be another explanation that I haven't thought of?

I was going for the Sam Rice photo as well Val - glad to see you get it if I didn't!
