1897 managers Fowler and McCormick pay attention to the man on the far left in suit
 
Here is another photo from my dad’s collection. The front appears to be an older car cabinet photo from the late 19 century of two teams : rising sun and Bradner ( I live in Indiana and there is a rising sun in Ohio ). The back describes the various players/positions and information. It states: managers Fowler and McCormick. My immediate attention was drawn to the man on the far left wearing a black suit. But Fowler managed a A baseball team at the end of his career in the late 19th century. My dad has an entry in his notes labeled 1897 JohN. The date on the photograph is 1897 and I know that Bud Fowler’s name is John. I don’t mean to try to pinpoint only notorious ball players, however the first half of his collection that I was able to identify did have notable players. I needed help identifying players and or league.

The first link is a photograph of the photograph and the second link is the back the photograph and the information

Definitely no Bud Fowler in there as he was African-American.

I thought he appeared to have darker skin. I hadn’t paid attention to the writing on The back of the photo until I payee closer attention to the man in the suit. I don’t think he Fowler ( Who African American )however I think he does appear to have darker skin than the men around him. Do you know anything about baseball league teams called rising Sun in Ohio

In my dad‘s Notes it said “1897 John” and I’m trying to pinpoint which photograph it could be

Can you share any pictures of Bud Fowler. More than just his team photo? It would be much appreciated
