You noted......"I was going through the Super Set and was surprised to find that these 2 cards have not been found
with the same exact backs, yet. I would think with the change in teams they would have the same backs."

Most likely due to the different times of their respective trades. Demmitt was traded to the St Lo Browns 12-16-1909.
Therefore, he was printed with an EPDG back,which was issued in the Fall/Winter of 1909 (approx. the same time the
first availability of the Piedmont 350 series cards).

I can't find a trade date when O'Hara went to the St Lo Cardinals, but I would assume it was sometime in early 1910.
His NYG card with a Sovereign 350 back was issued just prior to O'Hara's trade, and must of been short-printed (as it
is quite tough to find).

Needless to say, both New York versions of Demmitt and O'Hara with backs other than Piedmont and Sweet Cap are
seldom seen.
