Regarding the missing 25th card.....
The four baseball players in the set are Chief Bender, Rube Marquard, Frank Baker and Ty Cobb. In 1911, Bender and Marquard let their respective leagues in win %. Cobb led the AL in batting average. Baker led the AL in homeruns. The NL homerun champion was Frank Schulte of the Cubs (not exactly a household name). Here's where it gets interesting. The NL batting champion in 1911 was none other than Honus Wagner. Could the missing 25th T227 card have been meant for him? It boggles the mind!!!!! Steve
