I had many negro teams during this time period. As was mentioned above, town, school, church, etc. There were also a number of traveling teams such as the Wonders although none quite as notable. Due to the many railroad coal towns emerging in the state, lots of no longer existing towns piped up. Some towns had organized colored teams. There is much non-white baseball in Iowa, check eBay. Right now there is a broadside of a colored team playing as well as a sweet native American team postcard. Doubtful any of your pictured players are notable but never know.
