Keep in mind some of what we call “Salutation Exhibits” were distributed well beyond 1946. The Ted Williams (uniform number not shown) was available as part of the regular Exhibit set until 1959/1960 but retained the “Salutation” on front (others like Andy Pafko were also carried well into the distribution of 1947-66 Exhibit sets.)
