Default 1867

That would be 1867 as opposed to 97'....CTown will let you know for sure but without checking myself it certainly looks like it's from the "H" Book Of Harvard Athletics published in 1923 if I recall. That's a good question what it's worth...I don't think too many of those pictures get loose from the book...The picture was produced in 1923 so it's not like it's an albumen...

I think the whole book conservatively goes for $200-$300...depending on printing edition and so forth...so one little picture....who knows...You may want to put it on eBay once you know for sure what it is....disclose all and see what happens...Would be a good starter piece for a level 1 collector...See the bound cuff of the player on the far right?....that's classic 1860's....It's good to have 1860's baseball represented in a collection.
