I had a woman offer to sell me the "original photo" that was used for the 1954-1956 Aaron cards. She told me it had been with her uncle since the mid-1950s and she suspected it might be valuable when she saw the same pic on an expensive Aaron RC.
I let her know the "STAPLES" watermarks on the photo paper suggested a more recent origin. ![]() Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

I have noticed this with 52 Topps cards as well. I am not 100% sure, obviously, but I'd say Topps used some of Bowman's earlier photos and maybe just tweaked them a bit for their breakthrough set in 52.
