Hofman is a Type 2
Needham is a Type 2 but
Tinker is a Type 3 (same photo as T206 1909-1911 Tolstoi)
Cubman1941,

Your Tinker is also a T213-2, not a T213-3. The way to tell the difference is the back of the cards:

See: https://www.cardboardconnection.com/...baseball-cards

Many T213 cards look exactly like T206. Same poses were re-used. Indeed, some people think that T213-1 cards are really just T206 cards with Coupon being a back variation like Sweet Caporal, Polar Bear, Hindu, etc.
