Larry:

I've seen one other plate like this, for a Red Sox player, with the same kind of back. Reverse image makes sense as (I believe as a layman) the image was inked, transferred to a rubber mat and then slapped onto the press sheet (along with others players of course). Steve Birmingham might know a lot more about the process but that's my understanding.
EDIT, I think my middle part above is incorrect?
