Yet Another T206 Sheet Size Discussion

Great work here, guy. Of course I like the numbers on your tally since they tend to support my contention that Revelle was probably Double-Printed (D-P) in order to fit
the 34 subjects onto a 36-card sheet.

And my 2nd subject, Shaughnessy, may be the other D-P. Since his numbers indicate that there is a high probability that he was D-P. But, as you know, POP report #'s
can be misleading. And, with respect to Shaughnessy, I hesitate to be as certain that he was D-P as I am with Revelle.

I say this because I consider Frank Shaughnessy the "star" of the entire group of the 48 - Southern Leaguers. Frank is in three Canadian HOFs, former President of the
International League (1936-1960), and was a very popular Manager and Coach. Therefore, he has a very large following amongst many collectors....which can skew his
POP report #'s.

So, if not Shaughnessy, perhaps either Fritz or Manion were the 2nd D-P subject. In any event, I feel confident in my theory that the HINDU and OLD MILL press runs of
the 34 - SL subjects were printed on 36-card (or 72 card) sheets.


Take care good buddy......and, keep looking for that red HINDU Sheckard for my Exclusive 12 sub-set.

And how would the remaining 14 cards on Old Mill have been printed?

I wanted to bump this once more to get Ted's thoughts on the Old Mill sheet layout of the remaining 14 players...

Timelines of certain So. Lgrs. (Rockenfeld, both Hart's, Lentz, and some of the Texas Lge. guys) suggests that early in 1910, ALC most likely printed
all 48 - So. Lge. subjects with their OLD MILL backs on a 48-card (or 96-card) sheet.

So two runs of Southern League Old Mill backs?

• the first with the 34 grouping (from Hindu) with two double prints;
• and then the second with all 48 players as single prints
