Everyone should check out Jason's great (and very thorough) Diamond Stars article that he linked in his post, but in case your link-clicking finger has atrophied, here are scans of Mahaffey's 1935 Diamond Stars card with the 'A' emblazoned upon his chest, and his 1936 Diamond Stars card that lacks 'A' emblazonment, and also identifies him as now being with the St. Louis Browns on the back, which was printed with blue ink instead of green. Missing is his 1934 card, which looks just like his 1935 card on front, and has the same green back as his 1935 card, except that it has Mahaffey's stats for the 1933 season on the bottom.

In my opinion, the true rarities of this set are high-grade low-numbered cards (1-24) from 1934. If you can find a PSA 5 or better of one of these, you've really got something!
When I was putting this set together, the blue-backed cards from 1936 were said to be rarer according to everything I read, but they were by far the easiest to find in high-grade. Love this set! It has a cool art deco, comic book feel to it.... DS Burns.jpg |
