Great thread! I can confirm that Patrick's Max Stein PC uses the same photo as the Pinkerton pc (he sold me his Pinkerton).

Strangly enough, my Tinker Pinkerton has him listed as the manager of the Cincinnati Nationals. There must have been some effort on the part of the publisher to update the issue.

Also, does anyone have any ideas on the differences between the sepia Pinkertons and the ones that do not have a border, such as the Mack and Tinker shown in the other posts? Of my six Pinkertons, I have four "no borders" (Tinker, Jennings, Rucker and Schulte) and two sepias (Griffith and Myers). The sepias are noticeably "grainier" in the printing which gives a lower picture quality.

BTW, Mike Peich is trying to put together a checklist of Pinkertons. I have given him mine and I hope others will do the same. Maybe we can get some good research done on what I think is an intriguing issue.
