Ames hands at chest
Brown chicago
Brown cubs on shirt
Burch batting
Donlin fielding
Doyle throwing
Evers cubs on shirt
Magie
Pattee
Pelty

Wagner Pitt
...........Like Powers who is the only single card with a 649 overprint but no 350 series backs.

1st......The Magie (Magee) card is actually a 150/350 series subject, so I would not include with the original group of 12 subjects that you listed.
2nd......The Powers card was intended as a 150/350 series subject. But, his untimely death in April 1909 most likely is the reason his card wasn't
printed with "350 Subjects" backs.
