Love this thread too. gave me another chance to see Ken's Cartwright! That Zach Wheat is awesome too - we never get to see a real action shot of Mr. Wheat. Here's two Cabinets that I have never posted here - Pat Moran Horner and a local cabinet from his home town of Fitchburg Mass. That one also has a beautiful early autograph on the back - I would imagine a toughie too since Mr. Moran passed away in I believe '27. Love cabinet cards. I should have bid higher on the Radbourne back in REA!

1869 Kearsarge BBC Cabinets. Possibly the earliest known baseball cabinet photos. Cabinet photos were in their infancy in the late 1860's and these photos retain the red perimeter line that was typical to the CDV's that preceeded cabinet cards. These cabinets were produced by Kimball Bros. of Concord N.H. All of the players are identified (there are a total of 11 cabinet photos of different players) as well as their positions. One of the players is Howard Kimball, quite likely one of the "Kimball Bros" that produced the images.

Hi Ken,

"1999"? I know... I just cannot help but feel that there is a great story hidden within this photo. I & others have all kinds of ideas, but have not been able to corroborate any of them.

The best I can do is I have found a match on the Policeman's belt buckle "CCP". I have found a photo of a Cook County Police or Chicago City Police officer with a very similar uniform and a match on the buckle.

Now though, I have begun to wonder if it has anything to do with Illinois and the "CCP" for some other state...?

slidekellyslide
01-09-2012, 12:28 PM
My guess is they were playing a baseball game in the year 1999. I guess they thought in 100 years baseball would be played between men with guns and the umpire would have to be a cop.

I even went as far as signing up on a Gun Collectors forum and asked if they could provide any info on the guns. (Hoping for some sort of clue?) They were very helpful but it led down a dead end road.

Interestingly, those guys were intrigued by the (guy with sign) buttoned up pants leg. Debating whether or not a drive chain could be on the left or right side of a motorcycle or bicycle.

One fellow stated the he thought the photo was taken at West Side Park in 1899??? I cannot find any pictures of West Side that match...

You can see his pants leg and the Cycles in the bottom photo.

Here is a photo of the gun!

That appears to be a Stevens Tip Up. Also known as a "pocket rifle".
They had removable shoulder stocks, so they could be used as a rifle or a pistol.

Rob, nice cabinet! If Pete Conway, which I believe it is, it dates to just before he was picked up by Detroit (8/5/1886). The comparison portrait you show of Pete with Detroit would date to either late 1886 or just before the start of 1887 season and was taken by Tomlinson Studio. I've never seen the full portrait you've posted, only the oval cutout found on the 1887 team's "Champions of the League" composite (attached below). Could you point me to the source for the full Conway portrait with Detroit? Thank You.

The OJ book lists no Beckley N173 cabinets in private hands, with only 1 known in a museum collection. Is this example a new discovery?

Gary,

In September 2010 I had a thread about the Beckley cabinet that I have had in my collection for over 20 years. Sorry I'm not sure how to attach that thread but typing in "Beckley cabinet" in the search will pull it up.

The man with the bowler hat and walking stick is definitely Sam Wise. I have a cabinet from the same session so labeled by Tim Murnane.

The image from the Farmer Brothers cabinet photo was used as the source photo for the woodcut illustrating Fred Wood's bio published in the New York Clipper on 02-Jan-1886. Based on the photographer's stamp, I believe the photo was most likely taken in 1885, when Wood played for two Hamilton-based teams.

The image from the Arthur & Pailbric cabinet photo was used as the source photo for the woodcut illustrating Jack McGeachey's bio (spelled McGeachy in the paper) published in the Clipper on 13-Sep-1890. It most likely dates from 1886, when he played for the Detroit Wolverines.

Both appear to have been correctly identified.

Some great late additions to the thread.

Here is the old post that discussed the new Beckley find (thanks Russ):
http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=127480

I'm thrilled to see Bob Richardson posting. Jay Miller brought it to my attention, we were both surprised. Great to have you posting, not sure how I missed that you have 20 posts dating back to May of last year.

Lastly, great to see positive ID on Mike's cabinets. The "man in business suit" cabinets with claims of being a baseball player often end in disappointment.

Great cards all around.

In support of SPEC's correct assertion that Sam Wise is depicted on insidethewrapper's cabinet. Face from cabinet below left, Wise in a Boston uniform below right.

This one just arrived recently. I'm not sure what it is, but I'm guessing it's a baseball team (riding in the coach) sponsored by the organization that resides in the background building (you can see 'SBAC' on the coach and also below the awning in the background). For $20, it was nice enough.

Hi Scott,

I almost pulled the trigger on that one. It's a neat photo... Congrats. I had done some research on it. Here is a little blurb I found on what I think it is?

Hope this helps.

"The South Broadway Athletic Club has come a long way since it was founded on December 5th, 1899. Originally geared towards Boxing, Wrestling, and other sporting events, the club now hosts a wide variety of social gatherings. From dances to holiday parties, the SBAC is able to accommodate a wide range of events."

Thanks. Yeah, it could be anything - with everyone wearing mums, it might have been a dance. The fact that it's a thick soft-look albumen makes me think it might even be the opening of the club - age on this would be right around 1900, just based on the mount. The photo itself looks older, but I guess that's impossible :).

Well it ain't baseball but I was very happy to add this M128 Police Gazette John L. Sullivan to my festival of bric-a-brac:
