Hello TCDB Community,

I was looking through my Orioles collection and comparing it to the database and noticed that when I filter my list by team (Orioles) only one of the #336 Billy Loes variations (variation A without "Traded to Washington in March 1959" on the back) came up in my list. This left me wondering where was the other variation B card? So, I backed out and filtered by all teams and there it was, but it is tagged as a Washington Senators card. Is that correct? I'm asking because I don't know what the protocols are for assigning cards to teams. Does the "Traded to Washington in March 1959" qualify it as a Senators card? Thank you to anyone that can clarify this for me. Have a great day!

Case closed. Very sorry. I should have read the FAQ. Thank you!

Use team in any "Traded to, Signed with, Now with, etc." statement printed on the card
