This one I am not so sure about. It shows him as a righty and Irv batted and threw left, as is shown on E97.

I'm only 10 cards in to the 50 card Crofts Cocoa set, but I'll never complete it because I'll never pay Cy Young prices for an Irv Young card.

Major bummer for someone trying to do an Irv Young collection on the cheap...

IMO T206 Johnson pitching looks nothing like him. Not sure if it's another player or just a generic drawing.

Johnson's T206 is obviously a cropped version of this drawing.

Perhaps Kevin, but it looks nothing like him.

I agree. A little easier to isentify him in the T3 image though.

Yes not a great likeness there but at least some resemblance. The eyes are better or something.

It's definitely Irv. The image is simply reversed.

Edited to add:

Here's a link to a previous thread on the E90-1 Young (Cleveland).
