Nice work.

This evidence most certainly does impact the "rookie" card collecting community. Collectors often grab the W520 or W522 for George Kelly's rookie card. I guess this leaves the horribly ugly 1920 W516-1 as his only "true" rookie now. And the creators were kind enough to completely butcher his name (and position). And doesn’t the image look more like Ross Youngs (who also played for the Giants and who is noticeably absent from the set):
