It is certainly posed like a Burke, and George Burke did provide the images for the 1939 Play Ball card series, but in my experience it would be unusual to find a period Burke photo without his stamping on the back.
Not impossible I suppose, but that's just been my experience. Either way though, it is a great shot of Klein, and well worth owning and showing off. Congrats!
