Actually the company 新高 is Niitaka not Shintaka. The first character 新 can be read as Shin or Nii but in this case it is Nii. Below is a sample ad from Niitaka Seika featuring Lou Gehrig.

It looks to me like neither of these is on the checklist -- and I see that your team photo has a #13 on the bottom left where mine has a 15 and none of the others has a number.

Default 1931 Yuasa
I hope the following information is helpful:

There are many images, in which the same image was used in multiple Japanese sets produced by different manufacturers during the 1930s, 40s and 50s. The card that was previously posted with the number 15 on it has the same image as the card in the Yuasa set, but was printed by someone else, not Yuasa. No Yuasa cards have numbers on them. The card numbered 13 was taken at the same time as the number 15 image, but was shot from a different angle, and is not in the Yuasa set. The horizontal format Grove card is simply a 1931 postcard that has nothing to do with Yuasa. It was produced by a caramel company.

Thanks Gary, that is helpful. I guess we can scratch the possible additions to the checklist - especially the postcard which clearly doesn't fit (I missed the back of that one).

Do you have any info on any of the other issues that these images could have been a part of?

Unfortunately, I don't have any information on the source of the numbered cards. But we are always making discoveries and learning new things in the world of Japanese cards. If I find out more about the numbered cards, I will post it
