Default 1932 ? US Caramel

I just noticed something odd about US Caramel card dated 1932.
The back of Babe's card shows him as 39 years old.
Since The Bambino was born in 1895, either that text is wrong or the card is really a 1934 issue...
Now the only US caramel card I own is Tony Lazzeri whose math adds up...born 1903 and the card text shows Ol Poosh 'em Up as 29 years old.

Are there variations of the Babe claiming his age was37 on the back?
