What If? Buy the Name or Buy the Picture
The T3 Baker-Barry (named-pictured) presents some interesting questions.
Is it a HOF card with only the name of a HOFer? Are there other HOF cards that do not feature a picture of the HOFer? If purchased are you buying the name and not the picture, regardless of the holder? What if there was a card with Barry's name and Baker's image? Which card would be more valuable? Would you pay more for the Baker image without his name or for the Baker name without his image? Is the worthy of a premium simply because it's an error card? As an uncorrected error card, rarity should not be a factor in valuation.

The T206 and T201 cards of Tris Speaker sure don't look like Speaker to me.

Here's a good example & I'm pretty sure it's not valued the same as if it were a true Anson card.

Here's the opposite...a non-HOF card with a HOFer pictured. Not that it answers any of your questions
