On my blog between March 1-9, I ran several postings concerning submissions for the Standard Catalog by Maryland collector Al Moore.
Al has sent another packet of goodies, which I am working through for the blog and later pickup in my SCD column.
I've written Al for some clarifications, by regular mail since he doesn't do computers, but I could use your help, as well, before I make additions or changes to the Standard Catalog.
Orcajos.jpg
The cheklist for the 1937-39 Orcajo Cincinnati Reds postcards carries a listing for Ray Davis. While there were three players named Davis on the Reds in 1937-38, none of them was Ray.
There was Virgil "Spud" Davis, Roy "Peaches" Davis, and George "Kiddo" Davis.
Catcher Virgil Davis has a card in the set, but not Peaches or Kiddo.
Do you suppose the George Davis card pictured here was wrongly cataloged as Ray?
Al also sent the Alex Kampouris card shown here. I've asked him to confirm that is actually marked on the back as an Orcajo. If so, it is an addition to the checklist.
I'll be working up the material Al sent over the next week or two on my blog. You can keep abreast via the link below.
