Baseball cards of HOFers as managers/coaches

[Volod]

To me, it is almost certainly Williams in both photos. Look at the earlobes and the corners of the mouth - those features are identical in the Williams shots, but much different in Herman's images. From what I have read about Herman, he wasn't the kind of guy who would go out of his way to look at his cards, or care what was on them. And, as common players, neither guy's mixed up card pics would likely have drawn much notice, in 1952 or even years later. So now, a sharp-eyed Net54'er points out the mistake - I don't think the reaction will be any more than a few yawns among vintage collectors.
