Description: Offered for your consideration is... 1916 Sporting News/Felix Mendelsohn ST. LOUIS BROWNS Complete Team Set - including a Federal Leaguer (in Feds uniform) REPRINT ~ Near Mint condition Perfect for the Team Collector The original cards from this set are now more than 90 years old. Team sets - to say nothing of the full 200 cards - are not within the budgets of any but the well-heeled hobbyists among us. An excellent feature length article on this set and its companion (M101-4), produced by printer Felix Mendelsohn, appears in the Summer 2008 issue of Old Cardboard magazine. The cards are reproduced in the original (1-5/8" by 3") size and feature quality black and white action photographs. The backs are blank. Offered here is a COMPLETE TEAM SET. It is clearly marked REPRINT in the lower right, and is affordable by nearly all! If this team is your favorite - or contains a favored player or two - consider picking it up while it's available. ANY number of these team sets will ship for the single-set shipping cost IF the buyer will request and wait for a combined invoice before paying. Questions? Email us. The St. Louis Browns M101-5 team set contains an unusual card: #91 Fielder Jones who appears to be pictured in his St. Louis Terriers FEDERAL LEAGUE uniform! (See separate scan.) Others posing in their Feds' duds include: #92 Benny [Bennie] Kauff who is pictured in his Brooklyn Tip-Tops FEDERAL LEAGUE uniform on the New York Giants team, and #192 Art Wilson who is pictured in his Chicago FEDERAL LEAGUE uniform. These interesting discoveries are a topic of some discussion on Net54baseball.com as members check their M101-4s and -5s the summer of '11 - nearly a century after their issuance! Condition: Near-Mint or better Featured players include: George Sisler ~ Clarence Tilly Walker ~ Burt Shotton ~ Del Pratt ~ Carl Weilman ~ John Lavan ~ Fielder Jones ~ Earl Hamilton ~ Charles Deal ~ Jimmy Austin ~ Sam Agnew The Browns slipped a bit in 1915 but rebounded in '16 to a respectable 79-75 record - just a game back of the Yankees and the first division. _______________________ Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low.
