Revisiting the 1910 PC805 Novelty Cutlery Postcard set.

The Cobb is the Frances Burke photo, no? Is there no date confirmation for this? Rick has all the info already laid out above, looks like it matches the 1905-07 pics I have. Where is this shot at? We know Burke took photos in 1907 of the team, assume this could be from the same shoot.

I like the double dots on Cobbs last name, seems like artistic license, much like the asterisk on the Speaker, no purpose other than a fun design.

Dooin, Overall and Matty have the same dot...just so random? Man that glove looks huge!

Yes, it is a Burke photo. I assume that it is from 1907. Same one used for some of his other cards like his 1915 Cracker Jack and 1922 E121 American Caramel. Like I have mentioned before, it is common for card manufacturers to use old photos for their cards.

Obviously, the year of the photo does not date the card. Despite what others may try and suggest, it just determines the earliest that a card could have been made.
