Just to alleviate any possible confusion, the team composite is of the 1906 Bisons of the Eastern League, not the PCL.
McManus (died 1923) is the only other member of that team besides Tozer to have played any part of his career in the PCL
(a single game for Seattle that same year). Only four other guys who played for Buffalo from 1906 through 1908
played any part of their careers in the PCL -- Bill Clancy (died 1948), Bill Malarkey (died 1956), Joe Raidy, and
Bill Thomas (died 1906).
Trying to save any wild-goose-chase efforts to match those Bisons to the guys at the PCL reunion, although if Clancy
and/or Malarkey can be identified at the reunion, that'd provide some window as to the date of the event.
Some of the reunion attendees look to be in their 80s, others barely 40, so depending on when the reunion
actually took place, you've got guys there who could've played any time from probably 1898 to the 1930s or '40s.
Good luck with the research!
