Default Oakland Oaks set

Hi Rhett-

I'm sending you a PM with the info I have. Will you be in Atlantic City?

Mine have a stamped name (looks factory) of the subject on back in black or red. Very cool to possibly put a name to a set. Just as a bit of information I have 20 different cards with the names on back and 2 cards that look to have been distributed with them showing the outfield wall and image of the field (game in progress) that have no stamp on back but were found together. So potentially a 20 or 22 card set? Also they probably date to 1948 (or 1949) based on the players I have
