Integrated Team Player Photo ID Needed
 

I purchased this calendar yesterday and was wondering if it might be possible to identify the African American player depicted in the photo. The team is from Honesdale PA. Cannot tell if this is a high school or semi pro team. Not many integrrated teams around 1902, so wanted to see if any type of ID could be made of the gentleman in question.

Thanks for any help at all.

Wayne County Sports HIstory 1871 to 1972 by Keith Sutton, they are bottom row, Harry Theobald, John Reilly, 2nd row Benny Hessling, Milton Salmon, Ben Dittrich, John Vetter, Tito Vetter, Top row, Frank Schuerholz, Joyhn Gulden, George Murran and Billy Miller and the dog mascot is Duke Dittrich.

Very cool calendar. Looks like all at least college age. That looks like a Lafayette uniform second row. R. Milton Salmon played baseball for Lafayette and graduated in 1902.

This is terrific. Thank you so much for the info.

Probably already know this, but you just missed Mathewson by a few years.
