Playing era Pirates card for Hank Greenberg?

This falls into the category of super random stuff almost nobody cares about, but I think the one candidate for a playing era Bucs card of Hank Greenberg (1948 Blue Tint) is more correctly a Tigers or Indians card.

Details on the SABR Baseball Cards blog, but the short version is the Pirates logo from the source photograph has been blacked out, presumably as an intentional means of having Hank NOT be a Pirate.
