Goodwin would re-issue Hoy in 1889 as a type Fc card (word "Factory" shows up at bottom of card),

Thanks again Joe for the info. Pretty interesting that Goodwin was so eager to print certain players that they just speculated on their team affiliations. I guess they didn't want to wait for their version of "Topps Traded"!
