I agree with Patrick in that its nothing special

This looks like the effect of updating the card image for the current look of the uniform based on an earlier photo. Cincy's 1911 uniform has an emblem on the chest with the word 'Reds' in it - 1912 does not.



You can see the effect and emblem more clearly on McLean. They did a more thorough job downplaying the emblem on Clarke, both of which were "created" from photos taken in 1911 uniforms.
