* Joe Shannon played for the Boston Braves (NL) in 1915 and Red Shannon played on the same team starting in 1915. They are the only "Shannons" to play on a Boston team during that era. This seems to contradict the widely accepted 1909-10 dating of the set, which is based on the careers of a number of players who played for the listed teams in the 1909-10 timeframe. Needs research and clarification.

Note:
1) A "variation" subset was also produced with most of the players found with different poses and uniform colors. This second subset is best identified by the addition of a mirrored second label for the player's name and team.

2) In addition to the 36 "player" stamps checklisted above, there are six stamps that display drawings of baseball equipment (i.e., Ball, Bat, Glove. etc.)

3) A stamp for Ty Cobb has been reported for this set but not currently confirmed.
