Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Sorry if I'm asking something that everyone else knows, but am I missing something here? Are these the same guy/photo, and is it Irv or Cy?<br /><br />Thanks<br /><br />Joann<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1139916704.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1139916687.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>The clue is that Cy Young was NOT left-handed.<br /><br />Yes, it is Irv.

Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>I didn't think it looked like Cy, and w/some sets using the negative/backward photos wasn't sure about RH v LH. I just couldn't wrap my mind around the fact that a mistake would be made on a Cy Young card, instead of an Irv Young card. Oops. Yikes.<br /><br />J

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Aside from being lefthanded, you would think the big "Minneapolis" on Young's jersey would be a clue too. I guess they must have airbrushed it off on the e97 to cover up their mistake.

Posted By: <b>Elliot</b><p>Paul, actually the opposite, the Minneapolis would have been added to the jersey on the t206 card.
