Default Chief Bender Cabinet Card?

Posted By: davidcycleback

The problem with religion in photo identification is the bidders have to belong to the same religion.

One thing to remember is that in you high school you probably had someone who resembled someone famous. If you go through five thousand tintypes and a give thousand cabinet cards, you will come across nobodies who resemble famous people.

One detail that sticks out to me is how does the seller account with that the letters on the jersey don't align with a Carlisle Indian School identification. It's like saying a photo shows Red Grange in college, when they jersey says UM (Grange went to University of Illinois, for those who don't know).
