I was doing some reseach this morning and scrambled my brains when I ran into this. I am trying to decifer who is who. As you can see from the cards below, I am not the only one who got these two confused. Can some one point me in the right direction.. who is who?

Good one Marty! Looks like the M116 is incorrect. Did you come to that conclusion too?

To add: the three cards on the right look like the same person; the T204 Howell on the left is a different person.

Info borrowed from T207.com

"T204 Ramly Overview
....
A few cards have an image of a different player than intended.


•Roy Hartzell is actually Topsy Hartsel.
•Bill O'Hara is actually Tom O'Hara.
•The images of Harry Howell and Jack Powell are reversed."

So top left and bottom are Jack Powell, Top middle and right are Harry Howell.

I concluded the Ramley's were reversed after continued reseach. I also found an OLD Spiders photo with Powell pictured, bottom left.

Yes, the T206 and M116 are correct. BTW, Howell was called "Handsome Harry Howell" during his career, but I don't see it myself.

As stated, the Ramly is definitely HARRY HOWELL. I believe it is the same photo as the cabinet that I own.
