This came with players unidentified from a book on the Western League. The May 11, 1886 Topeka Daily Press gives us a pretty clear picture of what the roster was supposed to be: Lou Meyers, Ed Macon, William Forrest, Duke Jantzen, George Bright, William Buerger, Butch Blake, Arthur Hull, Alex Voss and Billy Klusman.

Just eyeballing this, Voss looks to be the player in the middle row, 2nd from the right. I like Klusman to be the player in the middle row, far left. Lou Meyers appears to be a good fit for the player in the front row, far left (though I'm basing this on a woodcut).
