In my opinion, the real Sharpe resembles whom is labeled as Hinchman in T206.

I found this, which Sharpe obviously doesn't look like his T206
http://loveofthegameauctions.com/lot-389.aspx# Doesn't look like Hinchman either, hairline doesn't match. Looks like Sharpe was balding. If you look, most of the T206 minor leaguers were based on this. Not sure I see any that look exactly like the T206 Sharpe, but you have to remember it's just a drawing of a picture, so it might not be exact

That's a good find John!! After viewing it, I still believe that it resembles Hinchman in T206. Since Sharpe wasn't playing for Newark in 1910 when the 350 series was issued, I think that we would need to find a Newark composite from that year to ID what player is on the Sharpe card.

I don't find a resemblance on any of these players either from 1910.

I need to erase those old messages because people keep skipping the message where I found the composite and changed my mind. Please disregard the earlier messages, which I will now erase to avoid further confusion. That Hinchman photo I first used was from his Baseball Prospectus page and can be easily found with an internet image search. That is where I got it. That was posted before I found the composite photo online and we moved on from there

Lastly, comparing the cards (below center and left) to the Bud Sharpe exemplar photo (right), the ear shape, hairline and every other isolated facial feature matches, hence it couldn't be more obvious that Sharpe is depicted on the cards.

Yes Mark, this is what I have been saying from the beginning. Sharpe is mislabeled as Hinchman in the T206 set. My question was if anyone had ID'd the player that was labeled "Sharpe" as it is obviously not Sharpe.

Jeff - yes I know - but I don't have the answer to that one other than, as you had said, it's obvious that the face in your first post is not that of Bud Sharpe. I just wanted to correct what the others had posted.
