Can you be the owner of one team and play for another?
I was just listing this 1932 US Caramel Eddie Collins and read the back. According to the bio he was playing for the Athletics and part owner of the Red Sox.
Am I missing something or is this Possible? I love reading bios on cards especially T202s Lee

The card should have indicated "Former Second Baseman", as it was issued in 1932 and Eddie's last year as a player was 1930. Brian

Also just noticed that the bio write-up indicates in past tense "Was considered the fastest fielding..."

Right, it's a tribute card. Like the Cobb.
Great set but they missed some major current players like Hubbell and Ott.
