Lot 80. 1919 W552 Mayfair Novelty “Baseball Position Drawings” Uncut Strip of 10 Cards. This 2 15/32” x 14 ½” strip features unnumbered color drawings of players representing various positions. The position is shown below the drawing. There is a crease in the lower right corner and on the first card on the left. Otherwise, the strip is ex and has had little handling. The set is believed to be complete at 12. Variations exist. For example, the pose for the center fielder on this strip is different from the pose on a sheet of 12 cards that we sold previously. Virtually all of the colors are different, and, unlike the sheet of 12, none of the players have letters on their uniforms. In addition, on the strip, “Pitcher” is incorrectly spelled “Picher.” The cards are Catcher, Picher, Running Base, Fielder, First Base, Batter, Shortstop, Center Field, Batter (left-handed) and Shortstop.
