Default Cy Young/Irv Young

The newest Heritage auction has a number of E98 Cy Young from the Black Swamp find. Some are labeled Cy and Irv, another just CY. In the same auction there is an E97 Briggs labeled Cy Young. To my eye it is the same picture as the E98 yet I have never seen it labeled with the dual names.

Can some of the experts explain why some carry a dual name and others don't?? Shouldn't this effect the price of the card??

They are all really Irv Young, it's an error. Probably some labels just reflect that and others don't.

That's what I thought. Isn't it misleading to keep selling and grading them as Cy Young?? Personally I will not add the card to my collection since it's not Cy. Thoughts from the membership???

It's Cy Young's card, just with the wrong picture.

If I am buying it is Irv, if I am selling it is Cy. If anyone wants a type card of Cy Young I might recommend a different one.

Yeah, they never played for any of the same teams in the same year, right? So you can tell who it was intended to be by the team listed.

In my view, it's Irv's card, with the wrong caption
