I bought this cabinet of a Boston player that was identified as Red Morgan of the 1906 Red Sox. But I don't think it really is Red Morgan or if the 1906 date is right. Does anyone recognize this player? Any help is much appreciated. It looks like a Horner cabinet to me. The auction listed "Homer" as the photographer.

Mark can chime in with more specific info, but I believe that is Chick Evans, not Red Morgan. That particular photo was the subject of one of the SABR Mystery Photo Supplements.
