It would probably be best to expand the question to Rowe vs. Elder vs. Brace vs. Paulson, as all produced RPPC's with similar characteristics.
To answer your specific question though, the Jim Elder RPPC's have a stamped number from 1 to 1400 on the back (printed postcard) side of the postcard with no player identification (at least, not applied by Elder himself, though later collectors may have added their own). They had a white border with a wider margin at the bottom.
Jim Rowe's postcards have a hand-penned block letter identification of the player on the back. They are typically full-bleed (borderless) though some do have an even white border all around. The front border or lack thereof is not the most distinguishing factor though.
