Don, thanks very much for your work on these!
Birmingham -- excellent. Looks like a match to us.
McKee? Can't be -- we said McKee, and we're never right!
And we were wrong about Hilltop Park -- Yankees' last season there was 1912 -- so we're still curious as to what singular-looking
1913 stadium it might be that's seen in both those last two pictures.

Most interesting find regarding the first two pics -- the eBay vendor's are allegedly glass plates, so, knowing next to nothing
about that aspect of early photography, we're confused as to how they could be in the LoC and also in the vendor's hands.
Aren't glass plates one-of-a-kind?

Still hoping others will chime in with player and stadia IDs...
