The first one (above) was shot by Arnold A Bake in 1938 when he toured southern India for a study of local performing arts. The picture was published along with Bake's paper titled 'Charlemagne in Malabar' in an international journal - Folklore, Vol. 74, No. 3. (Autumn, 1963), pp. 450-459.
The second one (left) is Sheni Gopala Krishna Bhat as Raja Vikrama. The undated picture was published in Ashu Vaibhava - a joint festschrift (1989) of Sheni and his contemporary Malpe Shankara Narayana Samaga..
The book was published by Yakshagana Kalaranga. A team headed by Kooradi Sadashiva Kalkura edited the volume.

Sir,
Good collection! Could you please tell us the artists' name in the photo shot in 1938?
Just for curiosity.
