Bris Lord

Magie/Lord isn't the only mistake in that set either, as the Frank Baker card features a picture of Cy Seymour's Horner Studios portrait, which is also a reversed image.

Here is the Seymour original photo...


Here is the T208/E104/D359 Baker...

Numerous sources have Bris' full name as...... Bristol Robotham Lord.

But, others have Briscoe Lord.

And, then others simply have Bris.

Bob Lemke did a story about this exact thing in the SCD a few years ago. I was looking through some old clippings I cut from the SCD (I cut all the vintage stuff out) and saw it last week. I guess someone wrote him and told him. He also reversed the photo of the E104 and put them side by side. funny

Great research on Cy Morgan. When I saw the T208 set at Legendary's booth in Philly, I had my
suspicions about Morgan. But, I could not find the correct image. However, I had a feeling there
were at least 3 portrait depictions in the T208 (E104 & D359) sets that were some other players.

This has been very illuminating thread....if I say so myself.
