Default Help identify these teams in Harpers woodcuts

Can anyone match these 6 images with their auction description below? I recognize the top left image as 1874 Boston. Two of the woodcuts described are the 1882 and 1883 NY Metropolitans, and I would like to know if they are pictured. If you know the issue dates for these two Harpers woodcuts please post them since it will aid my search for a copy. Thanks.

"Interesting Newspaper supplements including pages cut from 1888, 1906 North American and beautifully colorized prints from Harpers. There are eight Harpers woodcuts, six of which have been beautifully hand colored. These include 1882 Metropolitans, 1882 Providence, 1865 Atlantics, 1882 Chicago, 1874 Boston and 1883 Metropolitans."

"The other 2 are 1886 Champion players and a Harpers photoprint page featuring the 1897 Boston Beaneaters. One print from 1888 features a rare print of the Athletics. 8 are team pictures from the period published in a magazine supplement and are the same photos produced by LEVYTYPE used in the famous book Athletic Sports In America. The teams are Louisville, Columbus, the Athletics, Brooklyn, Kansas City, Philadelphia and St. Louis. Each has the players ID’d at the bottom. The reverse carries another major team picture, but because they didn’t line up the same the Ids were trimmed off. The 1906 North American Prints are Philadelphia NL, Chicago AL and Washington, the only three known. Generally excellent."
