Default Photo ID--Are these the same fellow?

My cousin pitched for the 1934 Phil A's after being signed off the Duke campus by Connie Mack. I have several postcards & a couple of index cards auto'd by him.

The 1st 2 pics are mine, the 3rd is purported to be him by an EBay listing.

Are all 3 the same Mort Flohr or not??

I don't see it, the ears are very different on the player on the bottom to me.

Tough call. I see some similarities but it's not a slam dunk.

The two top photos are obviously the same guy. The bottom one, not so much.

The chin on the guy in the bottom looks way different than the two top photos. See the upside down half-moon?

I say no.

Thanks for the replies so far.

What gets me going is that I DO see similarities in the shape & thickness of the eyebrows, the size & shape of the nose, the form & length of lips and even see ear shape as being similar!

I have been reading all the posts thruout the yr of IDing people by ears, etc (as Mr B Marlowe does) and I still can't decide one way or the other on this one!

I really hope more folks can offer an opinion because I want to bid on the postcard if anyone thinks it is him---I have never seen that 3rd pose attributed to him before and as long as I've been looking for my cousin's picture I have only seen the 2 I have.

I am glad I don't do this for a living bc they don't even resemble each other much to me.

For what it is worth, I think it looks exactly like him with a much different expression. The eyes, eyebrows, nose and rounded upper chin look identical to me. That left ear bothers me but could definitely just be the angle.
