Sherry Magee or Bristol Lord....what's your guess ?

Nice research; and, I think there is at least one more "mis-pictured" A's player in these issues. At the
recent Philly Show, my booth was adjacent to Legendary's booth. While studying their T208 set, I im-
mediately noticed that the Bris Lord image had to be Sherry Magee. I don't recall the other one I was
suspicious about. I'll have to see if I wrote down the other card's image.

These mistakes are really puzzling to me. Since, one of the better documented books on Connie Mack
refers to this Nadja set being issued shortly after the A's won the World Series in 1910. Connie and his
A's players were elated to see these cards. I would even say that Connie Mack had some influence in
the production of this 18-card set.

In any event, what is even more of a mystery to me....why wasn't Jack Coombs portrayed in this issue ?

Coombs pitched 3 complete games and won all 3.
