Just an update on this set...

I now have confirmation that the distribution of this set was NOT limited to Brooklyn, and I believe that it should no longer be classified as a regional set.

The cards were distributed in cities and surrounding towns (big and small) with large African-American populations as far west as Detroit (confirmed). I also have strong reason to believe the cards were distributed in Chicago and St. Louis (confirmation pending). That would indicate that the distribution area of the cards spanned (at the very least) every region / city with a Major League ball club between the years of 1947 and 1950.

I am still gathering the remaining details I need to finalize an article / research paper, but I hope to have it done come January.

BTW, if anyone could put me in direct contact with Rachel Robinson, I would be eternally grateful.
