Sean,
Can you post the Smith WWI card in its entirety? I spent over six months collecting the WWI cards of every major leaguer I could unearth and was unable to locate Smith's. I'm not convinced that yours is the right Smith, as the signature doesn't quite match up to others I have on file. Does the vital info match up to known info for Smith? Also, I notice that the Frank Smith you found had listed a mother in Connecticut as next of kin; Smith the ballplayer was a lifelong resident of Pittsburgh. Here are two verifiable examples of Frank Smith. The first is from his WWII draft card, circa 1942-43. The next is a form he filled out for baseball historian Karl Wingler in 1945. This contains the only extra writing I've seen on Smith. (Please note that the WWII card was filled out by a government worker and only signed by Smith).
