Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Happy New Year everyone!<br /><br />Continuing in the "Who Is This?" vein, I was looking at the 3rd December Recent Pick Up thread this moring and saw Sgt. Hoss' cards. <br /><br />Is it just me or does this <b><u>not</u></b> look like Hack Wilson?<br /><br /><img src="http://members.aol.com/kkkkandp/wilson.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Yeah, I guess the feet look petite enough, but facially it looks off to me for some reason.

Posted By: <b>Andrew Parks</b><p>I gotta say that ain't Hack Wilson. The guy on the card looks too thin, too.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.wcnet.org/~dlfleitz/hack.jpg"> <img src="http://www.canoe.ca/BaseballMLB/wilson_hack.jpg"> <img src="http://www.derspiel.com/blog/archives/wrigley-wilson.jpeg"><br /><img src="http://www.baseballhalloffame.org/hofers_and_honorees/hofer_bios/images/wilson_hack_4.jpg"> <img src="http://www.baseballhalloffame.org/hofers_and_honorees/hofer_bios/images/Wilson_Hack_2.jpg"><br /><img src="http://members.aol.com/kkkkandp/wilson.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Jimi</b><p>Take a look at the stirrups/socks on the card and the images that are posted. Looks more like he wore a constant dark sock all the way up, unlike the supposed mistake from that card.<br><br>Jimi

Posted By: <b>Scot York</b><p> It looks like Hack to me but, they claim it's Art Wilson. Does anybody have a Art Wilson card to compare? <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1136135492.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>For many years, checklists noted that the "Hack" Wilson in the York set and related ice cream sets is not actually Hack. I guess the STandard Catalog must have dropped this practice.

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>It took a while to find it and it's not the greatest, but here is Mr. Arthur Wilson. I think we've found our man.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.thedeadballera.com/Cards/WilsonArt1922E220.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Scot</b><p> Good eye Tim. We may get to the bottom of this yet. It does look like Hartnett. We need a better picture though.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1136240900.JPG">
