Should have guessed your eyes would have been the other spotter! I know the Burdick stamps carry some not insignificant value on baseball but no clue if they did on cards like this. I always like adding little variants, oddities and supplemental cards to my set runs
Thanks to my friend Marslife (Cliff) for pointing out one of the other stamps is William Beyer.
"H.E. Ross" might be Harold Ross, another early contributor to Burdick's publication and one of his known trading partners.
Not sure what the "J" above Breyer's name is, but the rest of the marks appear to be poorly stamped and incomplete versions of Burdick's. I guess nobody wanted to keep Mr. Flanagan for long
