A flag waving opinion, as long as that flag is American
The vast majority of baseball cards were marketed and distributed in the United States (with a nod to Canada), including all of the major ones produced for the national market, such as Goudey, Play Ball and Double Play. This production virtually stopped with Pearl Harbor and the aforementioned paper rationing.
To try to peg an European dateline to a term that involves such an USA-centric activity such as the mass production of baseball cards doesn't seem practical to me. There is no need to change the informally acknowledged and traditional application of the term PreWW2 from cards produced 1941 and before. It just makes dang ethnocentric sense! Brian
