Default Josh Gibson

I never said I doubted any of the info in the description. It is right on, as Andy has stated as to the number of copies, etc. However, I don't think it is beyond the realm of possibilities that the card was meant to be a card of Josh Jr. as he WAS playing at that time, and that may have been the only photo they had to go with. Much like the suspicion in the OJ set about the "Daly, Cleveland" having been intended to represent Hugh "One Arm" Daly, but actually picturing Tom Daly (from Chicago). Also, that picture of Josh Jr. is from when he is like 14 years old, strange that he didn't have the build of a 35 year man at that age.
