The set appears to have been issued over the two years of 1936-37. While the Vosmik card seems to have been produced in 1937, there are several cards that seem to have been issued in 1936.

The back the card of Al Lopez card references his trade to Boston "At the close of last season..." This trade occurred on December 12, 1935 which would lead one to believe that it was produced during the 1936 season.

Gehrig's card states that he "Scored the most runs in 1935." which he did, crossing the plate 125 times. He also led both leagues in runs in 1936 with a career high 167. If this card was made in 1937, you would certainly think that this would be mentioned as well.
