Oh, additionally, the card pictured is (clearly) not mine.

Eric, you are right, and perhaps that's enough for some people.
I don't know if you were around for the huge fuss I created when I tried to create a set of Old Judge reprints. Even having them larger with stamps on the back AND an added identifying mark on the front, was not enough for some board members.
This Lajoie is damned close to the original, the same size, AND distressed.
