Default Zee-Nut players also in T206

Let's have a thread about cards that depict players who are both in Zee-Nuts and in T206, the white border tobacco set.

I'll start it out with Del Howard.

Please try to post both the Zee-Nut, and the T206, side by side. Hold off for a bit if you only have a singleton.

Del Howard played for the Cubs, he's depicted in T206 with the Cubs. 1909 was his last year, yet this is a series 350 Piedmont card. He appeared at first base in 59 games in 1909, and pinch hit in 12 more. In 1910 and 1911 he played and managed the Louisville Colonels. In 1912 he'd made it to the Pacific Coast League, playing and managing first for the Seals, then later the Oaks. He managed the Oaks 1916 through 1922. His brother Ivan succeeded him as Oaks manager for 1923. I don't know if he stayed around as a coach or not. This is a 1923 Zee-Nut of him.

There are several other players who are in both, I have at least one more pair, I'll hold off and give someone else a chance.
