If the guides were issued in March, as has been suggested, there would be a very small window for the photographs to have been taken in the same year. Maybe a 1924 Guide could have a photo that was taken in January, 1924, I guess that's possible, but they would likely have been shot in 1923 or earlier. We can't assume every player posed for a studio shot every season, so when the guides were assembled the most recent available photograph would have been used.
