Circa 1961 Cin. Reds team photo i.d. help

[Wymers Auction]

I do not see an instance where Tommy Harper and Tony Perez played minor league ball together.

McCool did not seem to play minor league ball

So wouldn't it more likely be a Spring Training Photo? (since Perez, McCool and Harper are all pictured together)

Probably Spring Training of 1962-3, give or take a year? Apparently it can't be the Geneva Reds or any other Minor League Team...

I don't think it's Tommy Harper in the photo.. Perez is 6'2" and Harper is 5'9".

Good call. I believe #63 is probably Lee May.

I don't know what year it is or what is going on but I don't see Frank Robinson...

Thanks for everyone's contributions.

I believe this photo to possibly be the first photo of Tony Perez in a Reds uniform. The key I think is Harry Anderson. He had a cup of coffee with the Reds in both 60 and 61 but never made it back. This and the fact there wearing unis the Reds starting wearing in 1961 and through the mid-60's. As your probably aware, it was common practice to wear uniforms from the previous season during spring training. Most likely this photo was taken during spring training 1962 or possibly 61. I'm just trying to identify the rest of what I believe are non-roster invitees.

Agree with McCool, Perez and May. Coach Jim Turner ?? ( 2nd from left
first row ). Art Shamsky ?? ( on left side of 2nd row ). I feel pretty sure
about Turner. Could go either way on Shamsky .

I believe this to be the companion piece / photo to mine. Thoughts???

I was hoping someone would spot "Charley hustle".
