Latest fun find, need additional postcard player ID help
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hello all,

This is my latest find because I love history research. This is a postcard of the U.S.S. Glacier WWI team. I believe to have ID'ed Herb Pennock as the 2nd from the right in the back row and Mike McNally on the front left.

The card is a CYKO, with back print that was used from 1904 thru the 20's.

Based on the snip I added from the book "Nine Innings for the King: The Day Wartime London Stopped for Baseball, July 4, 1918". These players were on the Glacier at the time and also members of the "Wild Waves" Navy wartime team and the Navy League.

I am wondering if anyone can help ID any of the other players? I am thinking this may be more than just the Glacier team as only McNally has his jersey on. I feel the second player from the left in the front row looks like Maranville, but I may be totally off. I need to look at the ears more, lol.

Not to ramble but I was torn on ID'ing McNally as the first on the left and not the 2nd till I saw this pic with the exact expression. Hard to see the curve of the nose as the card photo is not a facing shot. I feel the hat is pushing the ears out as the studio shot has them closer to his head.
