The '(A)' in the below list refers to the player and designation as seen in the E91A set, the '(B)' going across on the same line is the same design as seen in E91B set, and the '(C)' refers to the same design as seen in the E91C set.

The * on the Murphy E91B entry below is to point out (which in turn was originally pointed out to me by Ben G) that although the designation for Murphy from the E91A set was repeated in the E91B set, the makers decided to utilize the artwork associated with Seybold in the E91A set for Murphy in the E91B set, and made Eddie Collins the player in E91B associated with the E91A artwork design for Murphy. It wouldn't be a vintage baseball card set without at least one curveball thrown.

Thank you Brian for generating this finished document; it looks so much better than my marked up list, kinda made from scratch.
Many thanks!
