Bob,

You are correct about those three cards being only in Koester's. They should have an asterisk.

The Ruth should probably have read "holding bat/photo montage" not holding ball.

The Hooper variation is the same photo just different size of projection (on one you can see a small building or something off to the left side that isn't present in the other version.) This variation had never been documented prior to me bringing it up here on the forum. As far as whether it is a new image is debatable, similar to the two different sizes of the Carl Mays image. That being said I seem to remember a slight size change between the Wally Schang cards from the Series of 80 and 120 (I think his hand is cropped in one version or something along those lines). Again, same image just different size, just not as extreme as the Tris Speaker for example.
