Yes I know. The Gonzales card, if authentic, is from the Sears 1946 set.

To my knowledge, Mendelsohn neither made postcards nor authorized others to use his images from m101-6; however, a few other card sets in the '20's "borrowed" some of his images. In any event and as you know from their careers, the Gonzalez and Marsans photos would have been from circa 1917 when first used. Gonzalez also appears in the m101-6 set with the Giants--thus from 1919 or 1920 (same photo, different caption). Good luck tracking down the info.
