Bill McCrary was a shortstop with the Kansas City Monarchs in 1954. A photo of him in a Monarchs uniform was posted on this thread in November, 2014, but this obituary photo shows a better view of his face. He died on July 21, 2018.

This nice photo is currently for sale by Heritage Auctions. Players identified by them are Pete Hill, top row, second from left; Ben Taylor, bottom row, far left, and Rube Foster, bottom row, far right.

If I find a little time, I might get back to this photo and try to identify some additional players.

Miguel Prats was an outfielder and pitcher with the Cuban Stars at the turn of the century. A photo of him was posted on this thread in February, 2015, but the uniform he was wearing was unidentified. This photo clearly shows him in a Cuban Stars uniform. It is from the Cuban Baseball Research project by Gary Ashwill.

A couple of photos of Grant Johnson have been posted previously on this forum, but neither showed him with the Cuban X Giants, as this image does. This is artwork by Graig Kriendler. It will be on display at the Negro Leagues Museum in Kansas City in the near future.

Photo credit in your name has been added to the original posting. Thank you for sharing your family's photo. Sorry that you feel that your picture was "ripped from Gary's page," but I thought I was giving him credit by citing his blog. I have indeed had a positive working relationship with Gary in other areas of research into Negro Leagues baseball.

According to seamheads.com, Provine Bradley was a second baseman with the Cincinnati Tigers in 1937. This photo of him comes from Robert Retort's book, Pictorial Negro League Legends Album.

I had posted a photo on this thread on Nov. 25, 2014 showing a player in a Kansas City Monarchs uniform and labelling him as Provine "Dick" Bradley. The identification was based on the Negro Leagues Book, by Clark and Lester, which indicated that such a player was a pitcher for the Monarchs and the Cincinnati Tigers. Given the correction by seamheads.com, I've now revised the original posting to indicated that the 2014 player was Frank Bradley.
