Chris, great job. I think you may be right. Sure looks like Syfert to me. Mark what do you think? In regards to a Fred Donovan match I found the following. Below is a team photo of the 1904 Bloomington team which Donovan played on and is pictured as the #7 player. Although it's tough to make out from this picture it's all I've been able to find at this point of pictures depicting Donovan. It does resemble this player though on my cabinet. Keep in mind my photo is 3 years later into his career than the team photo on the left.

Syfert - for sure.

I have that same Spalding Guide photo with Donovan. It don't think it's the guy Tony selected, but it's not clear enough for me to be sure of anythiing.

Mark you are definitely the man when it comes to this. Very impressive!! So if I'm understanding you correctly, are you saying that my cabinet is the picture that's used in the 1908 Spalding Guide? If so do you have a scan of the picture as it's shown in the 08 guide? Thanks much for matching up all the players.
