WOW, thanks for finding that link!! That is extremely helpful!

I wasn't positive but I didn't think I was seeing Speaker or Smoky Joe in the picture anywhere, so interesting to see others in agreement. I wonder why that was.

To post the information from the other thread as to player ID's:

Top Row, L-R: Doc Green (Trainer), unidentified1, Vean Gregg (P), Jack Berry (2B), Duffy Lewis (LF).

Second Row, L-R: Olaf Henricksen (OF), Wally Rehg (OF), Larry Gardner (3B), Rube Foster (P), unidentified2, Pinch Thomas (C), unidentified3.

Third Row, L-R: unidentified, Hick Cady (C), unidentified, Herb Pennock (P), Ray Haley (C), Ernie Shore (P), Mike McNally (OF).

Bottom Row, L-R: unidentified4, Bill Carrigan (Mgr./C), Carl Mays (P), Harry Hooper (RF), Babe Ruth (P), Dick Hobilitzel (1B), Chick Shorten (OF), Everett "Deacon" Scott (SS).

Possibilities for some of the unidentifieds: Unidentified1 might be Dutch Leonard; Unidentified2 might be Guy Cooper; Unidentifed3 might be Heine Wagner; Unidentified4 might be Ralph Comstock.

Some notable names missing from the photo (or at least I couldn't find them): most notable are Tris Speaker and Smoky Joe Wood; others include Hal Janvrin, Del Gainer, and Ray Collins.

I don't believe that the 4th player from the left in the 2nd row is George "Rube" Foster, FWIW. I looked this photo over carefully looking for him initially and I'm not too sure that that's "Rube"...

Agree with Scott - the guy from the team photo (below left) is not Rube Foster (below right), just look at the ears.

Rube Foster is just right of Pinch Thomas.

Very good detective work, Mark! I thought that that might be him, but couldn't be sure because the image wasn't clear enough in the scan for me to be certain...

Scott- The photo was taken at Majestic Field in hot Springs, I have seen that photo but the bleachers are at that location.

My wife is supposed to help me post some of the photos I have picked up from around town but he holidays have kept her busy this week!
