Andy, 1936 is the correct year for these photos as 1936 was the only season for the Omaha Robin Hoods who were in the Western League. Their stadium burned down and that was the end of the team in Omaha. They played out the season in Rock Island, Illinois.

Roster:

The most notable players were Pid Purdy and Clarence Mitchell the rest of the roster is as follows:

Dutch Prather
Ed Williford
Joe Spadafore
Ed DeCuir
Martin Tierney
George Wise
Keith Clark
Hank Severied
Dave Goodman
Russ Scarritt
Charles Wolfe
Dale Mills
Ed Nichols
Lyle Johnson
Frank Papish
Vance Cauble

If you are looking to get rid of these photos I would dearly love a chance to obtain them as Nebraska Minor League baseball is a specialty of mine.
