The unknown player is catcher Art Kruger who played pro baseball for one year for the 1910 Lincoln Railsplitters of the Western League. Not to be confused with Arthur Theodore Kruger who played in the majors 1907-1915.

Awesome Don. It's amazing that the newspaper item chose to feature a close-up of Kruger.

I have no doubt this guy is Beall.

You guys are amazing (and I say this as someone who has written a half-dozen history books for major publishers). Happy I got this thread started. And to think I bought that postcard mainly for the "art" of it.

Royal Gorgeous!
 
They are the dynamic duo...I printed off this group shot with all the players in uniform identified to enhance the postcard (thanks Seablaster) that I just picked up. Thanks for the non-stop effort! And thanks again Greg for bringing it to our attention...look how hard you made those guys work.
