Player Identities of T3 cards: #43, 44, 46, 49
 
Are the players pictured on T3 cards #43, 44, 46 and 49 merely generic or can they be identified as actual players from photos upon which the Turkey Red paintings were based?

I don't know, but here is a visual guide to those 4 cards from the Old Cardboard website. The sliding Brooklyn player in the #43 Out at Third does look familiar, but I can't quite place him.

Is "napping" Hal Chase and Dick Egan or Paskert. Just a guess. I get in trouble sometimes when I wander away and answer questions about sets I don't collect.


Safe at third. Leach.

If you told me the Giants runner in ‘Safe at Third’ was Bugs Raymond, it wouldn’t surprise me.

Looks to me like Bescher and Merkle on "Napping".

Cool post. I bet the real photos exist, somewhere. No chance they are truly anonymous.

Here's a link to a page on Craig's site. At least one card's source photo is shown. Curious to hear if he or anyone else has more knowledge on the players in these particular cards as well.

Man I want to say that's Chief Meyers sliding into Bobby Byrne based on the photo. Cool stuff.

The Brown Bros. archive, credited on the front of this photo, has been sold off at auction piece by piece over the last couple years and is still going. Many of the items have written notes on the back with identification for the original archive. Perhaps worth a few emails to see if the original of this photo was in the collection still and is identified.

Definitely Pirates @ Giants with Giants in home unis (per the card, the photo is less clear). I'm going to say the PIT 3B is actually Barbeau. This is easier to narrow down than the NYG baserunner, as the player is a very likely a third baseman.

If it is Barbeau, this narrows the photo down to 1909 as that was his only year with the Pirates.

Also, I think all four cards have at least one NY Giants player.

EDIT: The Giants baserunner COULD BE Larry Doyle. Something about the ears and nose. But it's a tough ID for sure. https://www.baseball-reference.com/p...oylela01.shtml

Jap Barbeau is the Pirates player #46 Safe At Third
He was their starting 3rd baseman in 1909

#49 A Close Play At Second looks like Cozy Dolan or maybe Dick Egan (long shot) as the Reds player
