Andy - not as enthused about cards during the war years given the major dilution of talent making "stars" out of otherwise marginal players.

I have a fair sense of who has done what in baseball history and I never even heard of any of these guys.

I agree about the dilution. However, Franchise ideas and Era ideas often overlap, and most of those ideas are intended to help weaker PreWar Franchhise Groupings.

Only interested in Super-Advanced cards. Would also add 1927 Heilmann.

Mel Ott 1938. I'm sorry I didn't think of this sooner. 311/442/583 with 113 games at 3b.

Also, and I'm sure will be a polarizing suggestion - Rogers Hornsby 1917. He led the league in slugging and OPS as a SS 327/385/484. He played 100% as a SS, with above average RF/9 and fielding percentage
