Default P.H. Mayo & Brother Tobacco Co. Patsy Cahill

Here is a P. H. Mayo & Brother Tobacco Co. cabinet card of Patsy Cahill. The photo is identical to 61-2 per the OJ book.

The seller had misidentified this as an old baseball photo of Tug Arundel. The seller also sold a similar type card of a different player in a different auction that had Gypsy Queen advertising. That card was larger on a large cardboard mount, but had the same look and font as the card I have. I believe this Cahill was removed from the mount and had the Goodwin written part trimmed away from the bottom.

REA had something similar in 2005 and proposed that these were produced post 1902.

Does anyone else have one like this or has anything new surfaced since 2005?
