The photos look like they're taken in San Bernardino, CA, where I believe the Browns trained that spring. The ballpark looks like the same one that's featuring in the background of most of the Pittsburgh Pirates' cards in the 1951 Bowman set.
Although I don't recognize any of the poses, the images resemble those that were used in the Brown's team-issued postcard set that year. Just like the Indians had done under Bill Veech's ownership, the Browns under Veeck produced beautiful postcards.
