I was doing some research to see if the player in the on the front, right, might be Archibald (moonlight) Graham as I know he played in North Carolina. I have contacted UNC, a museum in Chisholm, MN, a historian from the Minnesota Historical Society, and one of the co-authors of the book Chasing Moonlight, Brett Friedlander. Brett said he is convinced it is Archibald Graham, but everyone one else said they can't be sure either way.
The one thing that is throwing me off is that the person in the photo is wearing catchers pads and I don't have any record of Graham playing catcher.
I'd love to know other peoples thoughts. Thanks.
