# Player Position Team Subset
(see notes)
Notes:
Subset A consists of 76 players. However, they are represented in only 17 different graphical poses. These include seven different poses for the position of pitcher, three for catcher, and one for each of the other positions.
Subset B consists of 14 cards, all members of the St. Louis Browns. One card in this subset is a photo of Brown's owner, Chris Von Der Ahe, and is the only card in the N284 set that is not a generic drawing of its subject.
Subset C consists of 53 cards. Unlike those in subset A, each card is generally unique in design. Of the 53 players in subset C, 26 are found in one of the other subsets.




Known Cards w/Blank Backs not in Above Checklist


Many of the cards in the above checklist are known with blank backs, no doubt cut from posters of the era. They are generally not considered part of N284 Main Set. The card for one player, Brooklyn pitcher Steve Toole, has also been reported that is not included in the above checklist.
