Hi All and Merry Christmas. Back in 1992 I purchased this Baseball uniform and was told it was from 1910. Based on other teams at that time (ie the Cubs and Pirates) who also had their name run vertically down the front, I feel the date is in the zone. It says "Portsmouth". Do you think it is the Portsmouth, VA team or some other city.
I'd love to find a photo of team members wearing this jersey. It is in excellent shape, no mothing or rot, the "Victor Sporting Goods and Co." Tags on both jersey and pants are bright and fantastic (sorry for the fuzzy photo on the pants tag). It has navy blue piping down the pant leg and the pant leg closure and the bottom of each leg is quite colorful(see photo) Any help in identifying it further or if anyone has or knows of images of this team in this uniform, I'd appreciate seeing it. Thanks and Happy New Year, Mike |

I just found this image of the 1908 Portsmouth Cobblers , Ohio State League. Looks like the same pattern as mine and the ones in this photo look to be "Home" and mine is definitely the "Road" Jersey.As we know, pre WW1 uniforms were definitely dramatically different from each other, like the 1909 Chicago Cubs Home and Road jerseys.Again, mine also could be a later road version. Thanks for the Ohio tip. What do you guys think? Mike
