Default Date this Exhibit?

Can anyone tell me if this is a 1947 or 1950 Exhibit card? Based on the one site that I saw that details the subtle differences in the lettering on "Made In U.S.A." , this looks more like the 1950 version to me. But hard to tell as this is my first and only Exhibit so far. In the final analysis I know it doesn't really matter, and that the hobby as a standard just denotes them as 1947-1966, but I also know that if you are really interested there is a way to tell the specific year. In this case, it would just be kind of cool to know since 1947 was Jackie's first year in the majors, and obviously is a red-letter date in the history of baseball. Thanks for any opinions!
