Default 1920s? Original Baseball Illustrations Questions

Hi-

I bought these drawings a year or two ago at an antique ephemera show and I have a some questions about them. Any idea what they were used in? They are 14.5 inches by 22 inches. I cannot figure out the artist's name but there is a signature on each. Does anyone recognize the artist or the illustrations? Is my approximate timeframe (1920s) correct? I realize there were a lot of baseball illustrations in books and magazines in this time period but I figured I would ask. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Alan

I believe the backwards numbers below the images are alphabet codes.

They look to me like illustrations for a juvenile fiction book.
