It’s from Portsmouth, Ohio. The River City Base Ball Club was founded in 1866, with a lineup that included veterans from the 91st Ohio Volunteer Infantry.

Interestingly, years after I acquired this photograph, I purchased a circa 1910 lantern slide depicting this exact print. Even in 1910 this image was considered a curiosity.
