I have always considered the end panels true collector cards...the folks who pursue them are almost never in it for the money.
I also like the center action panels. I read somewhere that there are 76 different center panels, but have never verified. I guess complete T202 cards have never done it for me, but the components are fantastic in my eyes. Brian |

Yeah, I'm not really a fan of the complete cards either, except maybe the Tinker-Evers-Chance.

This is highly belated, but thanks, Brian, for posting this!
I accidentally ran across this post ~10 years ago (possibly my first exposure to net54, long before I was a member) when I was a few dozen cards into the end panels. It was nice to see that I wasn't the only one who was interested; but more importantly, it was extremely helpful to be able to cross-reference against your checklist -- at that point I already knew which players were included, but I didn't know about the various variations and had several gaps that I wasn't even aware of. I'm finally starting to approach the end (141/144 on the end panels, 72/76 on centers) and wanted to let you know how grateful I am for this information; I wouldn't have been able to get this close if I hadn't known what I needed to look for. .

Does anyone know what "...mowing down the Yankees in 1910 (14 in one game)..." refers to on the back of Mathewson's card?
Neither the Giants or Yankees were in the World Series in 1910 and according to Mathewson's game log on Baseball Reference, the most he struck out in a regular season game in 1910 was 11. Does this refer to an exhibition or pre-season game? And weren't the Yankees called the Highlanders in 1910?

![]() As for the team name, the New York Americans were often called the Yankees as well s the Highlanders. The T205s from the prior year carried that name on the card fronts as did some of the back descriptions. T202 apparently stuck with the same theme.

Looks like you on the cusp of completion for both the ends and middles. Good luck on your quest for the final 7 you need. Brian |
