A little help. Do any of these guys look familiar or just a generic team. I would swear that is Mike King Kelly bottom left. thanks

No. Perhaps it's not baseball.

I'm interested if you're looking to unload.

I'm quite certain that is not King Kelly. Silas Peirce was a wholesale grocer in Boston from 1815 into the 1920s, not to be confused with the better-known firm S.S. Pierce. The men pictured do not appear to be Boston major league players. They could be members of the company team (most large firms had teams around the turn of the 20th century), but I suspect they are more likely salesmen for the firm who gave away these cigars in the course of making their rounds.
