What's the second name at the top of this Lajoie T206?

Referencing the Lajoie from this B/S/T thread:

Any idea what that second name is at the top?

Do you agree that the second letter is an N?

There are only these T206 with 5 characters and an N as the second letter:
- Engle
- Knabe
- O'Neil

None of those really seems to fit except for possibly O'NEIL, but there doesn't appear to be enough of a gap between the first and second letters for an apostrophe to fit there, and the team name also looks too short to be Minneapolis.

Could it be a non-T206 card printed on the same sheet?
Are there any known instances of this?

That Lajoie is a 150-350 series pose so it can't be any of the players you mentioned. I think it's Lajoie at top as well. The team is pretty clearly Cleveland, so that's a good place to start. I think "LAJOIE" is just a little more condensed at the top than the bottom. The L,A,J seem to run into each other without any space between them.

Nice, thank you Luke. You're right. Mystery solved. I was overlooking the obvious.

Luke,
You seem to know your stuff about T206's. I was just wondering whether you knew of some references which list all the T206 backs and which players might have that back.
Thanks.

This is the best resource I'm aware of for that:

(which would have been wise for me to reference prior to making this post, haha)

Trae,

Exactly what I am looking for.

Thank you!
