I can certainly say that my notebook dates from no later than Sept./Oct. of 1914 as the student who wrote in it took notes for those dates. I cannot imagine a 4th grade student dating the book every day for a few months incorrectly by two years. Ira Thomas ended his career in 1913 (except for a 3 games total the following two years). Dooin's last year with the Phillies was 1914. If I recall, and this is my bad memory, but the Matty cover was Matty and Meyers and Meyers was done with the Giants in 1915. And just to be clear...Kauff was not a catcher, he played CF. I am fairly certain that these covers were between 1913 and 1914.
