Default T206's,who do you consider them to be?

Case 1: I never noticed one of these until today when I saw the Sporting Life cabinet but the T206 Krueger shows a picture of Otto Krueger taken back in 1902. The problem is he is shown with Columbus in the set which means the player they were going for back then was Art Kruger. Since the card shows Otto in a uniform he never played in, is it really an Art Kruger card or Ott Krueger? You can see the scans here:

Case 2: Lucky Wright is actually a picture of Eugene Wright, again, a guy pictured in the Sporting Life Cabinet set but the team is Lucky Wright's 1909 team and probably who they intended the card to be,so who is it? Lucky was a redhead as well,plus he wasn't even around the minors in 1902 when the cabinet pic was taken while Eugene was finishing his career in Spokane in 1909 when the t206 set was made
