Let's See some 19th Century Player Cabinets and Photos
 

There are always threads showing cards starting in 1900, but not much prior to that. After searching for a Baldwin Chicago card or cabinet on eBay I came across an 1890 Studio Cabinet. A little out of my price range, but it has caught my attention to these pieces.

I know there are some great collections out there with these types of photos. Let's see a few.

I'll start with my N173 of Al Buckenberger.

PS. If the owner of the Baldwin is a Net54 member I'd like to talk.

Here's a Germany Smith

This is just a generic cabinet, but it's oversized.
Plus I've always liked the image.

1876 Andrus CDV
 

I have this CDV of Fred Andrus from the first year the Cubs were in the National League in 1876 that was used for the White Stockings composite as you can see.

Really cool stuff so far. How did you come across the Andrus?

Picked up the CDV and a Cabinet of him from another collector a while back. Sold the Cabinet last year though.

The Gastright is awesome!!

Here's an 1897 Milwaukee cabinet with player/manager Connie Mack(center of photo).

Awesome!!!

Roger Bresnahan early

Derek, those are awesome. How do you manage to find these? Are they typically from auctions with player identified or just luck searching through photos?

Jeremy, what an amazing piece!!

Great bunch of photos. These threads are always my favorites. Here's an early Sam Thompson photo.

Here's my 1896 Baltimore Orioles Imperial Cabinet featuring the world champs in formal wear, including these HOFers: Hugh Jennings, Joe Kelley, Willie Keeler, Ned Hanlon, and Wilbert Robinson.

Someone else lucked out with the identification of those players when they found them on eBay, etc....I just over-payed for them at auction when the identification was made quite apparent to all. :o

Here's another one:

1868 Cleveland Forest City's w/ Deacon White (standing, second from left):

Is that the 1890 Columbus composite?

Posted many times.

1892 Portland
 

From the 1892 Portland, Maine, team..Bill Annis and Jim Rogers. Annis played for the 1884 Boston Beaneaters, managed by John Morrill, alongside Jack Burdock and Ezra Sutton.
Rogers played for and managed the Louisville Colonels in 1897 and during a poor season was relieved of his managerial duties by Fred Clarke.

Derek - wondering about the Cleveland FC photo - what is the story behind the ID of that? Thanks.

One of my favorites

not sure what on Earth is going on in this image, or when on Earth this photograph was taken, or who on Earth is being depicted...any help would be greatly appreciated

I dunno but at least one of those guys needed some longer britches. :eek:n

Here is a fairly recent pickup shown a time or two....

I've been looking to get a Denny Lyons card for some time. Thanks to Greg Mitchell on BST:

Attachment 229060

Great photo on that one. Congrats.

Here are some kids playing baseball....and some not paying attention. I am guessing 1880s on it. It is about 8 1/2 x 5 1/5 and has a purple stamp on back that says-

Princeton 1866 or 1867. Not a very good scan. Maybe Leon can make it larger.

o_O this one has some sizing issues. His head seems too small.

Here's one with a better scan- circa 1868 Agallians of Wesleyan University in Middletown Ct. Great pose. This image depicts the 3 bases and the pitcher's plate and home plate. I know of only one other photograph from this early period to show these.

Can I slip in one boxer?

Any John Sullivan is welcome!!
