As many are aware, I'm an avid collector of Sam Rice cards, and I have examples of his W575-1, W501 Type 1, and W501 Type 2 cards. I have a duplicate of Rice's W501 Type 2 card, and it is currently listed on eBay. In my eBay listing I have info regarding the differences in these cards, which may interest you: https://www.ebay.com/itm/354418082729

Val, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. It is always a treat to read what you have to share.
I have dug into the material more and I believe you are right. I would not have known this if you had not pointed it out, so thank you.
I am still happy with the purchase. It is a great image of Sisler.
I am not sure how to feel with this new knowledge. SGC/PSA not knowing how to label this variation/type is not really surprising to be honest.
