Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Probably a semi-pro team circa 1885-early 90s. Nice clean uniforms, well dressed manager, but only nine players means it was probably a town team that was well financed.<br /><br />It looks like you can see the name written at the bottom - "Carleton nine"? <br /><br />edited to add - looks like it is also dated 1893?

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>They look kind of young, so low level professional team at best, more likely amateurs. But a very nicely posed image.
