Lew Brockett is included among the players on the composite. Brockett started the season with New York, but his contract was sold to Montreal of the Eastern League in early August. I don't think that any of the players that joined the team in September are clearly identified on this piece, so it seems likely that it was made before or early in the season rather than afterwards.

In addition, Cy Barger (who is in the composite) pitched in just one game for the Highlanders, on May 10th. The rest of his games in 1907 were in the Eastern League. This is pretty clearly a composite of the team that began the season.
