Hello,
This discussion is a bit old, but I'm happy to join...
I don't have any pre-1920 team picture but I do have some Hull memorabilia to share...
Baines Card, Cyril Lempriere, Hull
Baines Card - Hull
Hull Stadium - Hull v Seaton - 1st round N.U.Cup - March 15th 1913

Here's Hull "Hall of Fame" Billy Batten in 1928, with his son Billy Batten, Jr. Batten joined Hull in 1913 from Hunslet for a then-record £600 fee... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Batten
Finally, here's a portrait of Mr A.J.Boynton who was Hull FC chairman before ww1 (and after ?)
If you want to get a idea of how pre-ww1 Northern Union rugby was played, I can only recommend these wonderful video footages from 1901-02 (Mitchell & Kenyon collection, British Film Institute). Unfortunately Hull is not featured in these movies... but definetively worth a look ! (Hunslet v Leeds, Salford v Batley, Oldham v Swinton)

I'm mostly a Rugby Union collector, but you could "dig" into my Flickr collection http://www.flickr.com/photos/rugby_pioneers/ for some old R.L./N.U. pictures (Baines cards, Hunslet, Huddersfield, Salford, etc...) if you like...
