Merkle923, What a pleasant surprise ... Welcome aboard!
You certainly posed some interesting questions about an interesting weird set.
I love the background of some of the T209 type II photos. Digging into the names of the players from that period, is quite an interesting experience. While looking through the roster of the 1909 Rocky MT team, looking for the elusive, and slippery Bourguise/ Bourquin/Burke, (Now known as different user ID's) I spotted a name that stood out like the Hope Diamond. Jim Thorpe The User Names got to play with what I consider the most outstanding athlete of the first half of the Twentieth Century. Unfortunately, it cost him his Olympic medals. Boy, would I love to have a T209 Jim Thorpe card ... a real one that is. I see that he went to Fayetteville also. I'm now wondering if he also played at Fulton?  Welcome aboard KO .....
