barry arnoldI'm wondering what theories folks may have regarding the amazingly few players recognized on the T206 cards from these leagues:
Texas League--4 teams with a sum total of 6 players (2 teams had only 1 player)
Southern League--8 teams with sum total of 20 players (1 team had only 1
player)
South Atlantic League--7 teams with sum total of 10 players (4 teams had only
1 player)
Virginia League--6 teams with sum total of 12 players
Eastern League--8 teams with sum total of 47 players (1 team had only one player)
American Association--8 teams with sum total of 39 players (1 team with just
2 players and 1 team with just 3 players)
Admittedly, I'm not surprised that there are fewer than from the American
and National Leagues. I'm just intrigued that there is such an incredible difference. I'm also intrigued with some teams being represented by ONLY ONE player, e.g. 4 of the 7 teams from the South Atlantic League are represented by only one player and 2 of the 4 teams from the Texas League
are represented by only player!!!
any ideas about what's up with this, T206 scholars!
best,
