Nice cards, y'all.

Ed Konetchy is a good example of a subject that helped early checklisters surmise that the set was released in three years, from 1914-1916. Konetchy played for the STL N. from 1907-1913, in 1914 he played for the PITT Nats., in 1915 he played for the PITT Feds., and in 1916 Boston nats. He has a card with a caption for those 3 teams. I don't think it would be impossible for "new" cards to show up in the future out of some Louisiana attic, that show cards that would indicate a 1913 release. I am not aware of any 1913 only cards now. Here are 2 of the 3 cards. I have the Pitt Nat, and will scan and post later, Rob.

Here's Ed Knonetchy, Pittsburgh Nat.

Also, 2 of the most commonly found cards from the T213-2 Coupon set are the McGraw portrait and glove at hip. They were probably triple-printed, released in the same format for 1914, 1915, and 1916...

Here are 3 Mowrey cards, all in Cincy uniform with 3 different teams.

I agree with you regarding this McGraw.

Here is Mowrey again, in 1919, still with the Cincy uniform but Brooklyn caption.

Mowrey's last year in Cincinnati was 1909. He played with the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1914, the Pittsburgh Rebels in 1915, and with Brooklyn in 1916 and 1917. He didn't play in 1918 or in 1919 when this card was issued.

He played with St. Louis from 1909 through 1913, but Coupon didn't issue a Mowrey card with a St. Louis caption.

Another mystery is Al Bridwell. He played for the St. Louis Terriers in 1914 and 1915, but I can't find any record of him playing for Nashville.

Superb Mowrey run, Rick.

On Bridwell, I also looked at his stats, and did not see him on Nashville, nor did I see any players on Nashville that had a similar name. It could be a mistake, or it could be like the case of the T206 Foley White, Houston. There is no box score, or record of White playing for the Houston Buffaloes, but it's hard to believe they rendered up a card for him in a Houston uniform all by mistake. Speaaking of Houston, I learned today that Bridwell was the player/manager for the STL affiliate, Buffaloes in 1919. Which means that his 1919 TYPE 3 Coupon card is a Houston Buffaloes card, which is nice.

Also, I'm up to 166/185 with this Thomas "Phila". Not the best condition. You can tell it's a "Phila", b/c the "Philadelphia" version's typeset is further to the left...
