Here are the H812s for Welch and Deasley compared to the images of Keefe and Connor.
Eight cards are on the H812 checklist:
Dorgan, Esterbrook, Gerhardt, O'Rourke, Richardson, Welch, Deasley, Ewing
Three additional unlisted cards were sold in the 1995 REA auction:
Ward, Keefe, and Gillespie
As far as I know, an H812 Connor has not yet been verified.
Welch's name is printed right below his tie, and Connor's name is printed right below his tie.
Deasley's name is printed to the left of his tie, so it is possible that the "E" on Keefe's card is the "E" in his last name.
The blue ink is remarkably similar - if not an exact match - in the cards and the images.
If the owner of the eight H812s sold at the 1995 REA auction could post some images that would be very helpful.
