Posted By: <b>Nick</b><p>I would like to know if anyone can offer a good guess as to which team this may be. It is signed "Notman, Boston" in pencil on the bottom right. To my untrained eye the photo appears to be an original. I won't humor the board experts with a guess...<BR><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1036913257.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1036913356.JPG">

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>They appear too old to be high school players, so it might be a college team. Check what 'S' college teams are in the Boston area. The only complication is that it's possible the team had their photo taken when they were on the road.<BR><BR>It's also possible that it's a local adult amateur team, though these guys look clean cut. Many of the old 'factory' teams were mottley-- varying widely in age, some unshaven, etc.

Posted By: <b>Jeff S</b><p>Notice that only a couple of them have the "S." Depending on if they are a college team or not (they could even be a bunch of cousins who played together), it almost seems as if everybody needed a white uniform top, and a couple of them had the same "S" uniform.
