They are pretty simple to determine. 1-1's are normal representations of all the players. The 1-2's are reversed images right down to the reversed copyright. I always liked the 1-2's in which Babe Ruth throws right handed and Cobb is a lefty. Alexander is left handed or ambidextrous. At least Clyde Milan's W on his hat works both ways.

I find it interesting that these were so cavalierly printed and issued with no regard for accuracy. I would think even a 6 year old kid would think he got pretty lousy strip of cards for his penny if his heroes were all backwards.
