However, I recently acquired an Old Mill back Doc Casey that is vertically miscut, and features a different player at the bottom of the card.
1) Has anyone seen an OM miscut like this?
2) What could be the explanation for the vertical positioning of the different cards like this? Were players alternating vertically in OM?
3) Who might the player with the dark blue background be?
Thanks in advance for your input and expertise. Looking forward to hearing theories.

I think you can cut this down to a handful of serious candidates.
I might have missed a couple of the dark blue subjects from print group 2
but if you eliminate the ones that haven't been confirmed or are Old Mill
no prints you're left with these candidates.
Batch
Bender (with trees)
Brain
Cree
Knight (with bat)
Krause (portrait)
Livingstone
Quillen
Bender and Cree have different back patterns than Casey and there is a
Livingstone two name PD350 with Maloney at the top so if you eliminate
these three as strong candidates you're left with these five.
Batch
Brain
Knight (with bat)
Krause (portrait)
Quillen
If you have these five in hand to compare with your Casey you
might be able to narrow it down further.
Very nice card congratulations on picking it up!
