The frequent photo errors from this period are usually a player with the same last name or similar since file photos often just had the last name written on the back.

Great job tracking this down. In case any of you failed to check out the link, the baseball-reference site shows the exact photo for Patsy O'Rourke as is seen in that composite.

Dude played for one year, hit .195, with OPS+ of 65.
