Default Sports Collectors Bible

I went back and checked the Sports Collectors Bible (2nd Ed), and they actually do list and organize the Cleveland Indians PCs more than I remembered. The book lists the Tribe PCs from 1948-75 as "PC-791" on pgs 417-419, as follows:

PC-791
Type I 1948-51 (Indian Head Patch on Sleeve)
Type II 1952-54 (No Piping on Uniform)
Type III 1955-57 (No Names on Front)
Type IV 1955: (Portraits Only)
Type V 1958-62: (Pinstripe Uniforms, Block Letters)
Type VI 1963-69: (Sleeveless Uniforms)
Type VII 1970-71: (New Pinstripes, 3-D Lettering on Uniform)
Type VIII 1972: (Stretch Knit Uniforms)
Type IX 1973: (Unnumbered, Color)
Type X 1974: (Partially Numbered, Color)

PC 791-2
1975: (Color, Unnumbered)

I remember thinking the groupings, many being multiyear, had to each be more than one set. I think that would be the next level of organization worth exploring, to pinpoint by year if possible.

Many players have multiple poses in the various sets. There are a total of 5 Al Rosen PCs listed across these sets, with 2 poses in the Type Is, then 1 each in the Type II, III, and IV sets.
