Default My theory---

---is this:

From 1903 thru 1908 Wid was a NY Highlander. He started the 1909 season w/ Washington.

The picture used as basis for his T206 was a NY picture so his cap had stripes. By the time the 350 series was being produced they realized as a Washinton player he should have a cap w/ no stripes, so they simply brushed them out. Simple as that, no?
