Not quite yet, but here is some more info. LOTG lot 3 is a photo that appeared in the 3/26/1911 edition of the Pittsburgh Gazette, and also appears to show the same sweater that Clarke was wearing in our mystery photo, perhaps lending further support for a 1911 Spring Training date in the latter.


Edited to add that the newspaper photo was not just published but also was taken in March, 2011, as seen in the same 3/26 Gazette:
