Default 1916 Sporting News (M101-4) Blank back
Among other things, I collect Jimmy Lavender cards. I won't tell the long story on it, but my wife is related to him.

I bought a 1916 M101-4 Blank Back Lavender (SGC 60) a while ago. All the books on pre-war cards tell me there were two issues in 1916 and both had advertisements on the back. This card has a blank back.

Here is a thread about when we went to his grave. The cards in the thread are identical, except mine is number 100 and the back is blank.

Does anyone have info on this issue? SGC says it's legit, but I just want to know more about the card.

Thanks in advance for any info.
