The picture is a team photo from 1943 per the book Barnstorming to Heaven. The author's father owned the Indianapolis Clowns but unfortunately passed while writing the book. There is a picture section towards the end (besides the postcard image being used on the cover). Don't have a copy available to me right now.

This Clowns' team picture includes Buster Haywood (standing far left in civilian clothes) and business manager Bunny Downs (standing far right in civilian clothes). Also pictured are King Tut (kneeling far left) and Roosevelt Davis (kneeling far right).
