Wow Bill, that's great information.
I checked Marc Okkonen's Uniform book and looking at Indians unis from 1902-1914 when Nap was with them, it has to be a road uniform and is most likely from 1905.
I say most likely because although the shows that year as being gray, the uniform style, hat, and socks match. All the other years either the uniform is different, or the hat and socks dont match.
This said, maybe it was spring training (did Van Oyen travel w the team?) and Nap was wearing any old uniform, or he wore different socks that day, etc.
Hope this helps.
