Alan:

As I compare the your photo to the one on the card (somewhat side by side), I think they're both Oliver (mutton chops/mustache)...

About the Ron Jackson Crown card, I knew it wasn't him but as my collection grew & seeing his card un-signed in my binder, it was bugging me so I reached out to him to see if he would sign it with that inscription (I made a donation to a baseball camp for under privileged kids he was affiliated with).

Since I started this project well before the internet, it was somewhat challenging to get a hold of some of these players...

Just an example was that I couldn't get Dan Graham to respond (who knows if I had his correct address), anyways (long story) I was able to locate his mother of all people and she told me to send my card to her and that she'd see that he sign it (and he did!).

Since I had duplicates of these cards, I would always offer to send them one back if they wanted (which I think helped with responses too).
