I think we agree that in this case the N300 pictures John Clarkson. There may be reason to look at these cards on a case by case basis, but the portrait takes huge precedence over everything else. In the case of the N300, it appears that the portrait and the uniform were joined by separate steps.

Interesting piece of trivia: the N172 Anson in Uniform, certainly one of the great rarities in the hobby, is actually Cap Anson's head superimposed onto Ned Williamson's body. I haven't a clue why this was done.
