Default T206 Era Minor League Team Photos?

I'm originally from Indianapolis, so I'm considering a display for the Indy players in the T206 set. A simple google search and I found the 1909 Indians roster that shows all five players from the set: Burke, Carr, Cross, Davidson and Hayden. I also noticed three other T206 players on the 1909 roster: Frank Bowerman, Vive Lindaman and Carlos Smith (there's an Al Shaw, but not the T206 guy).

I then looked at rosters for years before and after and was amazed to see even more T206 players:
1904: O'Brien
1905: Mattern
1906: Cicotte, Bill Hart, Thielman
1907: Summers
1908: Bush, Durham, Livingston and Marquard
1910: Delehanty and Orth
1911: Freeman, Danny Hoffman and Ritter
1912: JJ Clarke, Hallman and O'Leary
1913: Downey, Downs and Niles

TWENTY-NINE T206 subjects played for Indianapolis between in the ten years between 1904 and 1913. I had no idea... and I can't believe I didn't look at this before now.

Anyway, back to the initial question. Does anyone have any idea of the best way to find team photos (if they even exist) for any of these years?
