I don't know that I would agree. My thought is that the blank back and Sporting News cards were most likely distributed via mail in promotion, similar to the 1915 Cracker Jacks or M116 cards the Sporting News also produced.

But an advertiser like, say, Gimbels,, would have likely given them out by hand on location, which might explain the inherent condition issues and lack of high grade examples.
