Nice images. Early baseball is desirable, especially 19th century base ball!
I cannot see the name/ letters on the jersey shirts.
Maybe you will consider a posting for each individual photo that includes a blow up of the uniform and the back of the photo with any writing annotated.

The first photo is probably the Colorado Fuel & Iron company.

The third might be one of the many Des Moines Iowa teams. Maybe a precursor to the Iowa Cubs?
