Leon, thanks for your response and for the link to the old thread re the discovery of the Phila. Athletics sheet of these "cards." The Fred Merkle I gave REA to auction was graded by SGC shortly before the auction, which leads me to conclude that the hobby still considers them to be Derby Cigars.

Fave E Card : E270-2 Tin Top of Harry Welchonce. Only one known for now
Hard Luck Harry finished 4th in batting in the Southern Association in 1912. Career .321 hitter in 7 minor league seasons, purchased by 3 Major league teams, went to spring training 5 times, but only played 26 games one season for the Phillies where he hit .212

LOL...you can consider them elephants if you want to.
BTW, I agree, the hobby does still call them Derby Cigars as well as I do. They are indeed known by that....but that doesn't make them into what they are being called. Lots of mistakes like that. We all know or some.
