Gary, good question and example of why this isn't an easy answer. The normal thought on these is there are 2 variations. Sepia examples have the name caption and thicker stock, B&W have no name and thinner stock. My Foxx really presents lighter than most other examples I've seen. It is also on noticeably thinner stock than my other cards. While the cut makes it impossible to tell, for those reasons and that it doesn't have a name on top, I believe it is also a no caption variety.

Your Gehrig is interesting as it should be a b&w without the caption though the color looks much closer to the Sepia version, at least to me. Do you know if it is the thinner or thicker stock? Your Gehrig is an example, and not the first I've seen, that makes me wonder if there are actually 4 different permutations of the caption/no caption/sepia/B&W.
