Regarding the 20 Southern Lgrs....Imagine if Shoeless Joe Jackson was in this group ?
In their 350 Series press runs, American Litho. (ALC) printed 48 - Southern Leaguers (OLD MILL or PIEDMONT backs). From this group of 48 SL cards, 20
represent the Southern Association players. ALC printed these 20 with the COUPON back and issued them with the 48 - Major Leaguer cards in this set. Featured here is Ted Breitenstein....who in his 1st official Major League start, pitched a No-Hitter on Oct 4th 1891 with St Louis (American Association). It was a near "Perfect" game, since he faced only 27 batters. He allowed one Walk, which was erased by a Pick-Off play. Then, approx. 8 years later (Aug 15th 1909), while pitching for the New Orleans Pelicans, Ted pitched another No-Hitter (vs Montgomery).   Southern Association (20 subjects) Bay. ............... Nashville Bernhard ......... Nashville Breitenstein ..... New Orleans Carey ............. Memphis Cranston ......... Memphis Ellam .............. Nashville Fritz ............... New Orleans Greminger ........ Montgomery Hart ............... Montgomery Hart ............... Little Rock Hickman .......... Mobile Jordan ............ Atlanta Lentz .............. Little Rock Molesworth ...... Birmingham Perdue ............ Nashville Persons ........... Montgomery Reagan ........... New Orlean Rockenfeld ...... New Orleans Smith. ............ Atlanta Thornton ......... Mobile OK guys, consider this........ In the Spring of 1910, the Philadelphia A's assigned Shoeless Joe Jackson to the Southern Association. Joe played for the New Orleans Pelicans for a good part of the 1910 season. Imagine if ALC had included Shoeless Joe in this group of COUPON cards........WOW !
