Hopefully I can cheat and post one from 1900 - Taylor Smith when he was in the Provincial League in Canada. He also played for a number of teams in the US. For his full story: https://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=277647

EDITED TO ADD: Between 1897 and 1900, he pitched for New York's Genuine Cuban Giants BBC. The Syracuse Journal (4/28/1897) reported: "Pitcher Smith of the Cuban Giants has a set of ivories that hoodooed the Stars yesterday and every time he smiled one of his six by nine smiles he rattled the men at the bat so that they did not plug him to the extent expected."

I love that report because it 100% matches the character that shows in the photo.
