Don and Lance, thanks very much! Excellent information.
Still looking for player / team / year / ballpark IDs on the first two pics, though -- the LoC listings provide no details (that we see) beyond "1913-1917."
We're thinking the guy in the first pic is wearing an A's sweater...
For the third, then, it's Joe Birmingham, Cleveland, 1913, at Griffith Stadium.
For the fourth, Red McKee, Detroit, 1913, at Griffith Stadium -- could that be Rip Williams catching?
There's no resemblance to Henry, Ainsmith, or Ryan, the only other guys behind the plate that year for Washington.
Lance, we added a follow-up post in the thread at the eBay forum, asking the vendor for clarification on the source of the photos.
