I'm no expert but let me take a stab at it. Your photo looks a lot sharper than the ebay one. I wonder if yours was reprinted by the actual newspaper that owned the negative. That would explain the different cropping. Newspapers often went back in their archives to reuse photos for retrospective stories like the one on the back of your photo, and they would have had their original negatives. I know the Detroit News even had a library in the building that housed their stuff. And even though it's an AP photo, I think AP would often get their photos from local newspapers. So I don't think it's technically a Type I, but I like yours better.
