Southpaw Rube Marquard

Rube Marquard (1886-1980) - lived to be 94 years old). He was a star LHP MLB career; 1908-1925. NY Giants (1908-1915); Brookyln Dodgers (1915-1920), Cincinnati Reds (1921); Boston Braves (1922-1925.) 5 top seasons : 3 consecutive 20 win seasons for the 1911-13 Giants- a 19 win season for the 1917 Dodgers and a 17 win season for the 1921 Reds.
Worst season: 18 loss season (9-18) for the 1918 Dodgers.
After reaching 198 wins through 1923 Marquard struggled mightily with the Boston Braves to get his milestone 200th win, getting only one win in 1924, but finally reaching the 200 wins mark with a 2-8 record for the '25 Braves in his final season to finish his career at 201-177.
I'm seeking four photos: one good portrait photo (in baseball uniform, with baseball cap on or off) with each of his MLB teams:
Giants, Dodgers, Reds and Braves.
