Card Fronts - Second Series

The second series of T3 Turkey Reds began right where the first series left off,
with the production of beautifully lithographed cabinet-sized premiums of the top
baseball players of the day.  

While not as packed with Hall of Famers as the first series, this grouping did
include Chief Bender, Eddie Collins, Walter Johnson, "Wee Willie" Keeler, Bobby
Wallace and "Big Ed" Walsh.  Frank "Home Run" Baker also appears, however the
image on the card is actually that of teammate Jack Barry.

The second series contains three variations highlighted below.  It also claims
what many feel is the rarest of regularly issued T3s, the card of  #114 - Bob
Rhoades of the Cleveland Naps.

90a. Doolan

90b. Doolin

Throughout his career, Mickey
Doolan was noted as both
Doolan and Doolin.  The Turkey
Red set offered us both
variations.  Curiously, the
correctly spelled Doolan was
changed later in the series and
spelled incorrectly as Doolin for
the remainder of the run.

112a. Paskert - Cincinnati

112b. Paskert - Cin. and Phila. Nat'l

122a. Tenney - N.Y. Nat'l

After playing for the NY
Giants in 1908 and 1909,
Fred Tenney spent 1910
playing for Lowell of the
New England League.  In
1911, he came back to the
National League to act as
the player - manager for
the Boston Rustlers in
what would be his final
season in the majors.

122b.  Tenney - N.y. and Boston Nat'l

On Nov 12, 1910 Dode Paskert
was traded by the Cincinnati
Reds with Fred Beebe, Hans
Lobert and Jack Rowan to the
Philadelphia Phillies for Johnny
Bates, Eddie Grant and George
McQuillan - thus another T3
variation was born.  Hans
Lobert's T3 card was never
updated.
