Japanese Menko Never-ending ID Thread...

Hi there, I have just started collecting Japanese Menkos, and of course am running into identification issues. Anyone want to help?

The first pair look like they belong in the JCM 12 or 43 series (1960 Marusan Simple Back). However, I can't find a match (the issue I'm seeing is that the position is in parentheses). Am I missing something, or should I chalk it up to my "uncatalogued" category?

The next two I feel more comfortable about, but want to double-check. I think the left one is from JCM43e (the b&w one), but I don't clearly see which player. The one on the right I think is JCM12e - I think 315000 Hamanaka?

And the final group, I think are both from JCM12d. I think I've got 190000 Hakota and 400100 Kuroki. Does that look right?

So far it's been fun getting into the depths of Menko collecting. But this specific series has been the most frustrating for me to figure out so far. The colorful earlier cards are much easier for me to figure out. But of course I'll have to start an "Uncatalogued" thread to share as well....
