Default Mystery player - WHO can identify 1912 W-UNC (W555's illegitimate cousin)

WHO MIGHT THIS BE ? I have NO idea....... the year is also questionable, but 1912 is what they use.... very limited checklist so far... Anybody spends time genuinely researching, greatly appreciated ! It's not Charlie Brown, I doubt it's Farmer Brown, and quite certain it's not Jim Brown.

how about 3 finger brown? Although the team letter on his uni doesn't make sense...kinda looks like he has 3 fingers though?

Kind of resembles G.C. Alexander to me, however, there was a George Browne that played third base for the Phillies in 1912. Could be him?

Looks like a young Pete Alexander to me.

How about Buster Brown, he played for Philly although before 1912.

I cross checked the players almanac for browns from 1907 to 1912 and couldn't come to terms with the few candidates in that time period. Mordecai brown would make sense. He's in the w555 set. But the P on jersey is a throw off

I think that is definitely a Phillies uniform.

How about George Browne who played briefly with the 1912 team?
