Jackie Robinson photo, what is it?

I did pose this question before, in “Jackie Robinson, photograph used to produce 1952 Berk Ross Baseball Card?” But new information has come forward, but I'm still not sure what I have.

Old information suggests the photo was used to make the 1952 Berk Ross cards. In my search to find out what I have in my collection of 8x10 black and white photos. Some information was provided to me about the Jackie Robinson photo, being used to make his 1952 Berk Ross baseball card. Although no one officially said I have the photo that made the Berk Ross baseball card. The information would suggest so: The two linked articles- suggest the photo was used as a photostat to make the 1952 Berk Ross baseball card.

Now I have always wondered if the photo was used to actually make the Berk Ross card. The problem is no one knows where the photos came from that Berk Ross used. The two linked articles say the photo was made from the original, making it a type 3 photo. If I am right, the articles suggest the photo was used as a photostat to make the 1952 Berk Ross baseball card. Meaning Brek Ross made the photo from the original, suggesting Berk Ross had added the name to the original photo to make the card.

But the new information I have suggests it could have been from a photo pack, I have other photos that do match other Berk Ross cards, and have proof that some of the Berk Ross cards could have been made from photo packs. One question I have.. are photo packs considered type 3.
I have so far acquired 9 Berk Ross baseball cards that match the photos in the collection, and I have noticed there are more, I do not know how many will match, but I know there are more. And I have other BB cards sets that match the photo collection from, R423 strip cards, Bond Bread, Bond Bread Premiums, and the re-prints HRT/RES cards, And I have some Exhibits cards, and Salutation Exhibits cards that match the photos.

The best information I have is that they are team issues/Player Picture Pack Photo issued through Stadiums. Thereby Berk Ross used photo packs to make his cards. Because many people have said they or someone in their family had acquired photos like I have right from the stadium or bought them from a dealer who said that’s what they were. So does anyone know what I have?

Member AustinMike provided these pictures of the 1956 Yankees Action Photo set. I do have some of them in my collection, Hank Bauer is one that I have, it is also a Berk Ross card. Notice the script or type style is the same on the Jackie Robinson photo and Hank Bauer, look to be the same. John
