Great Find! Please help identify players

Hello everyone, I went to the card show in Cincinnati today, and after I suffered through a 45 minute construction blockade on north 71/75 I finally made it to the show and found a type 1 photo of the 1916 reds team. I was really excited because it has Fred Toney in it and a Bellinger photographer mark at the bottom as well. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out who the rest of the players are. Here is the scan below. I was really excited when I held the photo stock and realized that it was actually a period photo. Thanks for the help.

Interesting piece since it predates the Mathewson trade which included Edd Roush and Bill McKechnie. The player who identifies the timeframe is Buck Herzog who is the second player from the left in the middle row. Next to Herzog is Tommy Griffith. Herzog's left hand is on the shoulder of Ivy Wingo in the front row. The player third from the right in the second row is Heinie Groh. Fred Mollwitz is the last player to the right of the middle row. The next to last player in the front row is Pete Schneider. The first player in the second row is football Hall of Famer Greasy Neale. More IDs coming.

Thanks for the help so far Brian. I can't wait to here the rest of your id help. That sticker on the bottom right is not on the photo but on the plastic protective sleeve it is in. I am going to go get a frame for it tomorrow and a nice archive matte for the frame so the photo does not stick to it etc. I had been looking for a old team photo with Toney in it for a while. I know it is tough to find 1916-1917 reds stuff so I was so glad I found it.

Tommy Clarke is the first player on the far left of the first row. The second player from the right in the back row is Clarence Mitchell. The last player in the back row is Ken Williams, baseball's first 30-30 man. Red Killefer is the middle player in the second row with the stern look on his face.

You may wish to use www.baseball-reference.com for photo ID help. Click on "Teams", then "Cincinnati Reds", then go to the 1916 roster. Most players will have a headshot photo in their individual player pages, making identification much easier for you!

Is that Hal Chase, 3rd from right in front row?
