Default Fireballs, 19450, 19415?

I came across the photo given to me by Chuck Keating. As mentioned above, I think he received this from Jeannie Hallowell. Since this image is the only known colour photo of the Fireballs team, I though it worth reproducing here. I'm not sure if it was a print from her initial negative but I don't think it is clearly an improvement over published versions. It never was a sharp image.
The serial number (19)450 is fairly clear but even in the expanded blow-up, one can't be certain of the 2nd aircraft with a visible number. I'm going to guess it was Jack Frazer's (19)415. A better image of 19415 can be found in Dan Dempsey's book.

If anyone wants a higher res image, just PM me and I'll send it along.
