George Ruth

For the 1922 E121 cards (holding ball, bird, montage), I have only seen the "Babe" Ruth (w/ quotes) as the caption even though PSA shows other variations in the pop report.

For the 1922 W575-1 pitching pose, there are also three ways the caption is displayed, same as the 1921 E121 version.
Also, the Babe and "Babe" variations list him as a right fielder. The George version calls him a left fielder.

Was the George the earlier version of the card?
