Another interesting photo.
Here is another interesting photo in my collection, Bobby Doerr. Notice the spelling on the photo, Bobbie Doerr. It is exactly the same image on the 1947 Homogenized Bond Bread card, D305.
But you never hear anyone talk about the name being wrong. In most collecting situations a mistake adds more value, one of a kind. But most people in this case have the opinion that it does not add any value. OK, but it does make the photo and card more interesting. And to me it is proof that the photo with the name on it came out circa 1947 the same time as the card and could have been made from the original negative. John.
