Let me provide some insight into why I asked that question. There is a clear difference between the original version of the card and the later reprint version. I've created this animated gif to illustrate it. The original features much more room at the left edge, and a little extra space on the right side and at the bottom where the lines of his shirt show (the reprint version has those areas cropped tighter)...



The ad you posted shows the original, not the reprint version of the Feller card, so the question needs to be asked. In 1974, was Laughlin selling reprints of the original cards from 1967 (with the address on back), or was he selling the new, slightly revised cards without the address on them?? It's possible, and perhaps probable, that in creating the ad, he simply used a pic of the original Feller card he had on hand, instead of a pic of the newfangled version, since they are essentially the same card. There's no way to know.

On a side note, each Feller that I have seen so far with the address on back has the wider borders on it, and every reprint I have seen has the cropped borders, but (and this is a big but) I would not yet rule out that some of the cropped border cards may have the address on back. I haven't seen enough examples of the card to make a definitive conclusion. The sample size is too small.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
