Default Southern league populations

Posted By: Scot Reader

Okay, I'll bite.

I have said before that I think there are about 3,000 examples of a typical 350-only subject in existence. This is based on an analysis involving Demmitt and O'Hara (St. Louis) that I don't want to revisit here.

In my eBay survey, 2.4X as many examples of a typical 350-only subject appeared as a typical South Atlantic League, Virginia League or Southern Association subject.

1.6X as many examples of a typical 350-only subject appeared as a typical Texas League subject.

So I would guess that there are about 1,250 examples of a typical SAL/VL/SA subject and about 1,875 examples of a typical Texas League subject extant. Just a guess and I could be way off.

The reason for the disparity appears to be that Texas League subjects were printed longer with Piedmont 350.
