T206 Ghost Overprint of Walter Johnson ?

Thank you for the feedback from the previous post which was helpful in identifying one of the T206 ghost images.

I've been spending a lot of time trying to determine what ghost images are on the group of cards that I found. I would greatly appreciate feedback on the Mullen card. It has 3 ghost images - one of Mullen, one of Schirm - do you think the third image is of Walter Johnson ? I've looked through the images of all cards from the set, and this is the only one that resembles the ghost image.

Neat card. I see 3 different images there, but I don't think the one is Johnson. The shadowing of the hair and ears don't seem to match up. Same for the collar area. It does resemble it though.

The ear line doesn't match up. For the life of me, I just can't figure out who this is...

Hi Seth,
It looks like Frank Delahanty to me......

Have a look.. http://www.vintagecardtraders.org/virtual/t206/t206.html

It looks like Delehanty, but the left ear appears to be higher than the eye in the ghost image.

The collar line on the Delahanty doesn't match either.
