Default Misidentified "1880 Boston NL" team photo in Mile High Card Co. auction

The image below is a photo that is available in the current auction being run by Mile High Card Company: http://www.milehighcardco.com/Except...-LOT35220.aspx

EDITED TO ADD: Thanks in part to the detective work done by the contributors to this thread, this photo has been withdrawn from the auction. Read on...

It is described as "Exceptional Photograph That By All Appearances Features The 1880 Boston Red Caps (Beaneaters)", and includes IDs for some of the players. The photo bears the Chickering stamp, and appears to have "1880" written on the edge of the matte.

Do the identification experts on this board agree that this is the Boston baseball team of the National League and that the photo can be dated to 1880, or is this just an unidentifiable Boston-area team from sometime during the active years of the Chickering studio? If it is the NL Boston team, can more players be identified?
