Hogan, with a great cap and sun collar, and Williams with a warm sweater for those cold San Fran nights.

The 75 1909 Obak cards all have unique artwork, whereas players that are featured in both the 1910 and 1911 sets will have the same artwork if the team designations on the 1911 card remained the same. When a player featured in the 1910 set has had his team designation changed for the 1911 set, new artwork was created for the 1911 issue.

Below are the only 6 players (if I remember correctly) that are featured in the 3 sets that have 3 different artwork designs. The 1909 cards are on the left, center is 1910, and on the right are 1911 cards.

Maybe the coloring on the Tacoma caps isn't an error.

Great info Brian. I think the 1910 Brashear was too close to the Weed that Ben posted.

And thanks to relaxed regulations, you do have your choice of Seattle Weed or Spokane Weed.

Adam, which year is your Ostdiek? I think I have a good idea which card is its next door neighbor (Hickey or Holm if 1910, Holm if 1911).

I didn't know about the Spokane Weed card. Will have to get one so my Seattle Weed isn't lonely.
