The Braves' player is identified on the back as Paul Strand.
The player in the Cubs' uniform is identified on the back as Angemeir. In the summer of 1910 the team purchased the contract of a catcher named Leo Angemeir from Frankfort of the Bluegrass League, but did not put him on the team that season. The plan was for him to be with the Cubs in 1911, but instead the team sold his contract to the Southern League team in New Orleans in late March. His image appeared in some newspapers earlier that month while he was still training with the Cubs (see below from the Nashville Banner, March 7th, 1911).
