I'm doing some research.
Can anyone post a photo of the 1910, 1911 or 1912 teams or tell me where I can see them?
Thanks.

Look them up in the Spalding and Reach Guides for the year following each season that your are interested in. (For the 1910 team, look at the 1911 guides.) Not every professional team has a picture in the guides, but many do.

Thanks for posting those links. I was able to find a few pictures of the teams my wifes relative played on, as well as a mention of a season and likely career ending injury he had in 1913.

Lots of cool stuff in those guides.
