The closest I've come is the card of Dave Davenport, who was part of a large lot sold in Heritage awhile back. That card was graded as 1920 by SGC, but so was the entire 63 card lot, I believe, and I don't necessarily trust their attention to accuracy (they likely missed on a couple of others). No back scan was provided to confirm.
2) Can anyone confirm that one or more of these subjects can be found with a Type 1 back?:
A: Bagby; Donovan; Foster; Gowdy; Griffith; Judge; Peckinpaugh; Pfeffer; Rixey; Ruth; Thomas;Toney;Whitted. These have been confirmed with Type 2.
B: Daubert, Doak; Jennings; Maranville; McInnis; Meadows; Miller O; Pipp; Schupp; Williams F; Witt, Wood. I have seen these with e121-80 or other related backs, but not Holsum.
Thanks for any help, and confirming scans would be very much appreciated.

I'll address your specific questions...
#1) NO, all have E135 front images
#2) A: From your list I have only confirmed Peckinpaugh (interestingly his name is spelled CORRECTLY & then in later E121/Holsum Type 2 & the like printings they mispelled it Peckinbaugh),
