Here is Thorpe from a very obscure set of Supplements issued in 1914 by the New York Evening Sun. The artist, Larry Semon, later became a leading silent movie star who directed and played the lead role of Scarecrow in the 1925 silent film version of The Wizard of Oz.

Details about the set of 21 supplements (all members of the NY Giants) can be viewed here.
