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.

1903-1906 date is making the most sense for me at this point. I'm pretty sure, but not positive by any means,that the guy standing behind Honus is Deacon Phillippe. He's also in Tom's Louisville photo 4th from the left, Standing. I've got some other references that I may post later including 1901 Pittsburg team photo where they look a little younger but similar to the RPPC.
Thanks again for the help and keep the ideas coming, thinking of getting this graded (for protection, not #) and wanted to have as much info as possible. (yes, SGC).

OK, I guess I'm posting them now....
