Default 1932-38 Vancouver Senior Amateur League Popcorn card EXPERTS

I included an image of a W.ADSHEAD card, familiar to the previous owner and a few others on here. Have you EVER seen or posses a single other copy that the TEAM name is NOT listed on the lower part of the card, and the players name and position are listed like this card..."W.ADSHEAD-CENTER FIELD" (in big letters)... out of over 85 images I've seen online of Vancouver peanut cards, I have NOT seen THIS variation style repeated... Of note, it also contains #18 stamped in the upper left hand corner. I've yet to confirm a second one to repeat this format, and I do know the various years formats may differ or share similiarities. Some others I've seen do have a number printed, but NOT with just player's name and position listed in big font.
Also, came across some information where someone tried to document what teams were in the leagues for various years, it is acknowledged incomplete, and possibly impossible to verify. Mentioned 1932-Arrow, Fireman, Telephones, VAC 1934-A&Q (allen & quigley), Arrows, Home Gas, VAC 1935-A&Q, Athletics, Home Gas (Homes), UDL 1938 A&Q, Athletics, UDL, ?? Either way, regardless of the year of issue, I only see images for UDL, A&Q or Allen & Quigley, Home Gas or Homes, Athletics, and VAC.... Do ANY known cards show any other team, specifically Fireman or Telephones, or a team not identified ??? Seen no cards with these two teams. Thank you !!!!
