Default Black Sox Postcard Player Identification

Posted By: Jason Kaster

I received the postcard today and thought I would see if a better scan might help identify some of the players.

The back of the postcard indicates that it was printed in Mineral Wells, Texas which was the spring training home of the White Sox from at least 1917 to 1919. I only used those years as Swede Risberg started with the White Sox in 1917 and Joe Benz was released in 1919.

So far here are the individuals that I have identified.

Front Row: ?, ?, ?, ?, Nemo Leibold, Fred McMullin, ?
Middle Row: Joe Benz, Ted Jourdan
Back Row: Swede Risberg, ?, ?, ?, ?, Byrd Lynn

Any help that someone might be able to provide with identifying the players would be appreciated.
