I think you nailed it Todd. The side view shown on the card definitely looks more like paunchy, dark haired Jimmy Collins than a youthful Eddie. And Jimmy played his last season in the MLB with the Athletics in 1908, so the team identification matches. The back of the card just identifies the player as 'Collins'.

The E93 Standard Caramel set has been identified as a 1910 set...is it time to look into the actual issue date of this one too? In any event, I think it is about time to switch the identification of this card to Jimmy Collins.
