I don't believe it's a Koester as we've seen full sets of those appear over time in scrap books so I assume one would have surfaced... I also don't believe it's W575, which is kind of like the default set for graders when an uncataloged card is discovered from the era.

I believe there are some 1920-ish Bread cards like the Holsum that are out there mislabeled, and this one is an early test run/blank back. I could be wrong, but it would make sense.
Do not believe it is a Koester either. Not quite sure where to classify this one either. My Great great uncle played on the 1921 and 1922 yankees team and I do not recall Lewic being a teammate. Still a cool card as it is a Yankee and does go along with my E121 Yankees and Giants subset.
