thanks ted...it does...i guess I've never looked closely at the e97 backs. I'd like to see a 1909 back that reflects this nichols, phil variation if anyone has one.

The back of these cards reflects the team on the front.
Boston traded Cy Young to Cleveland Feb 1909.
His 1909 card depicts him with Boston (front is Irv Young). His 1909/1910 card (front is Irv Young) has him with Cleveland. I have not
seen the Boston version of Cy Young, so I cannot say if its back is Boston or Cleveland.
The A's and Boston variations are worth considerably more than their two Cleveland variations (Nichols and Cy Young, respectively).
I hope this answers your question.
