That is a nice image. Based on this website, the stamp box would date the RPPC as pre 1907-1910. He does look too old for the photo to be taken in 1898.

Very confident it's Honus Wagner..........here's the 1898 Louisville Colonels team photo but I don't really feel good that the others are any of these guys. Nothing definitive but the photo could be from later and maybe someone saying he was in Louisville in 1898 maybe......don't know.......nice team.........also included.....Fred Clarke, Dummy Hoy, Tommy Leach, Topsy Hartsel, Rube Waddell, Heinie Smith, Claude Ritchey, Harry Davis......LOTS of T206 guys..........woops 1899 team........

This photo is probably from 1912 or so... There's Butts Wagner on the right.

Based on the back it is a pre-1907 postcard as it is undivided and the style of AZO back is consistent with that. That being said I would have a very hard time blieving this is from before 1905-1906 based on Wagners age in the photo. That does look like Butts on the far left seated (I haven't done much research into it though) so it could just be a photo of friends from their hometown or something along those lines, may not be baseball related (but it could be).

He sure had some massive shoulders....probably had to work with a good tailor to figure that suit out.......guys in the back row look familiar but so many do in those photos!

The guy on the RPPC in the back left looks like the guy on the Louisville Top 2nd from right. (Mouth open vs mouth closed, the ears look similar and the part of the hair is the same, and the face and eyes look very similar)
Where is our ear to nose expert ?

The guy back row 2nd from right in the Lou NL 1898 team photo is Nick Altrock. He does not appear on bobbvc's RPPC.
That is Butts front left on the RPPC (and Honus as well on the right). I don't recognize any of the other faces and I don't think they match any of the Lou '98 guys, but it's hard to be sure. Butts looks too old for 1898. |

I can take you right to the spot of the 1912 era photo. The wooded bank is still there in the rear parking lot of the Weyerhauser offices on Whittington Ave, in Hot Springs, Arkansas. There were several more photos taken there on what appears to be rather cold March day.
