Joe_G.From a player perspective, No, both easier than average.
Bill Farmer was issued 5 poses in 1888, most of them being re-issued in 1889 (with St. Paul).
Scrappy Carrol was issued 6 poses in 1889 with St. Paul. His 1890 NL cards with Chicago are another story, but that's not what you posted scans of.
Best Regards,
