I think this is the card about which Fred was talking. I'vge done a negative image of the name and team and you can barely see "Hafner" and "Kansas City" above the ad box.

Fred sent me the image he wanted posted (thanks Fred) and I added a couple others for comparison (Fred's copy being far left). I agree that Hafner must be the toughest 1889 script card to read. Even with a strong image you have to strain to make out the name. I followed Kevin's lead and inverted the colors to help find the name "HAFNER, P. KANSAS CITY"; not sure it helps much.

Just picked-up this Darnbrough script card on a BIN. I am not an OJ expert but the other examples of this pose I have seen have the name plate. Not sure why it's labeled as MC. Maybe PSA mistakenly thought the name was cut-off.

Hey Scot, yet another example of an 1889 pose found with both script and a block text panel. I used to own the attached example which would be the twin to yours.
Edited to add: A fairly large number of the 1889 Denver poses are catalogued as both script and block text. It is plausible that the first 1889 Denver cards originate from a 24 card photo/sheet that relied on the script names already present on the negatives, however, the card maker ultimately decided to add block text panels to make many of the cards easier to read, perhaps coinciding with a team change correction (team changes being common reason to re-shoot a 24 image/card matrix and responsible for many variations from minor cropping differences to more significant variations). By far, 1889 is the most common year to find minor card-to-card variations of the same pose. As of yet, no other "no name" cards have been shared/revealed.

Joe, That's a beauty. If you had said that you still owned it you would be getting a PM from me right now trying to pry it away from you for my Denver collection! Scot
