That information all makes sense my major concern was with such little information on these cards, I was trying to make sure they were not made in the 30's or 40's showing the stars of the past or something like that. I initially purchased the card because I saw my exact card in Christopher Benjamin's book entitled "Most Valuable Baseball Cards" that was published in 1990. The book states the card is Cir. 1919. After 19 years from the book publication, I was hoping there was more information on the cards. I do know of 1 other card similiar to mine but it has Grover Alexander and I think Rogers Hornsby replacing Walter Johnson and Stan Coveleski that are on my card. I did talk with Robert Lifson from REA and he said the card was original and he had one back in the 70's. I guess I just want to get more documention if it is out there somewhere. Below are the pages from the book I mentioned above.
