I always assumed that the headshot was the green tint (both cards are #190)..

Moon is definitely an anomaly. Each of the player pose variation cards--Lee Walls (#129), Billy Hoeft (#134), Bill Kunkel (#147), Carl Willey (#174), Eddie Yost (#176) and Wally Moon (#190)--have distinct GT attributes such as a green sky or a hazy, blurred look, except for Moon and Willey. The shots on their cards are definitely not examples of crisp photography or anything, but they are in no way 'overly greened.' However, the overall darkness of the shots coupled with the unbalanced redness of some of the skintones allows them entry into the GT canon.
