You know what happens when you assume. I think its fair to say the pictures relate to the same piece of real estate. That has nothing to do with WHEN they were taken. Please note that the uniforms are obviously from different years. The Lexibell picture features solid color socks and a striped uniform (and cap) while the Vault imafe features the opposite--striped socks and no stripes on the home uni (or cap). Those changes were made in 1958. The only year where the uniform from the Vault shot was in use (supposedly) was 1957.

So, just for example, the Vault shot could be Hersh Freeman. Freeman was #30. Acker was also on the '57 squad, but I don't think you can conclusively show that it is he--especially not when your analysis is based upon 1959, which the Vault image clearly is not. I think the eyebrows are more consistent with Freeman (set lower than Acker's), but my facial recognition abilities are lousy, so I'll leave it to others.
