Dave HornishI have to wonder if the Honus being pulled from cigarette products is due to his promoting cigars at the time T206 was issued?
Also, I cannot find the reference right now but believe Lipset once wrote all the photographs used for T202 (end pieces), T205 and T206 had all been taken by 1904. I thought it was in his "Encyclopedia" but it may have been and "Old Judge" article. I also may be remembering it slightly wrong but it might explain player selection for T206 to some degree. Can anyone provide this quote from Lew?
