The same picture of Grove is used on the 1977 Rowe Exhibit 4/1's shown below. The size of Grove's picture of the Rowe card is 1 1/4 by 2 3/8 inches. The color of the card above does not match the Rowe card and I have never seen the Rowe exhibits in a different color than the yellow below.
The Grove image above does not appear on the 1929-30, 1931-32, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937 or 1938 Exhibit 4/1's. I can't speak for the 1933 Exhibit 4/1, though, since I don't have one.
Grove was traded from the Athletics to the Red Sox sometime between the end of 1933 season and the beginning of the 1934 season. I don't know the exact date of the trade.
