Default 1915 Salt Lake Bees Postcard - Lefty Williams?

Just curious if Lefty Williams of the Black Sox is in the team picture on this postcard. I know he was on this team in 1915.

certainly possible. The image is so small and the players faces in shadow and half tone so it's hard to tell. If you could find this same image as a photo and pinpoint Williams, then you could be certain he's there.

Maybe the guy kneeling second from right, front row. Again, nearly impossible to be certain based on this image... at least for me.

Thanks Jason,
I'm going to take a proper scan of the team photo when I get the card. Thanks for your help!

--- I agree - From a micro look, I was going to say the front row 2nd from right as well. When we see the large scan it shouldn't be too hard. (I bet a cup of coffee it is the front row 2nd from right guy...)

Default Speculation :

Lefty would either be 2nd guy on left middle or 2nd guy on left front row. (If you are facing the PC looking at it) Those are the only 2 guys with the drawn in jaw / skinny jaw/chin look...

I originally thought it was the front row 2nd guy, but after a closer look I am going with the middle row 2nd guy... I believe it is Lefty.
