Default Sherry Magee or Bristol Lord....what's your guess ?

I'm looking at my Bristol Lord card (it's blank-backed, so I don't know if it's a 1910 NADJA, 1911 Cullivan's Fireside,
or a D359). In any event, I tell myself that I have seen this face before.

Yes....of course, it's the face on the 1909 T206 Sherry Magee card.....albeit a reverse image.

OK Net54ers, am I imagining things, or are these two portraits of the same guy ?

And if so, can you vintage BB photo experts identify who is who here ?


Incidently......both Magee and Lord have the following in common......

Born a year apart in countryside towns in Pennsylvania

Started their major league careers in BB in 1905 in Philadelphia


TRIVIA......what significant event in BB history is Bris Lord most known for ?
