Anyone have any idea what these images were originally cut from?

Looks to me like a cut up team cabinet. It is a very intresting piece and would display well framm and matted.

Yes, this is from the 1878 team cabinet. I used to own one (I think one of the board members bought it from me a few years back). All of these small images are contained in this particular albumen cabinet card. Somebody, sadly, apparently cut one up to make this item (unless they are photocopies of some sort). Kind of a shame. Neat item but considering the price, I'd have to think maybe the buyer, and runner-up, was thrown by the seller's pitch about it being comprised of some unknown blank backed cards.

You know Rob, I've never seen that exact cabinet. That's a particularly desirable one too. Most of the Boston team composites of the late 1870's have either Harry or George, but seldom both. This one has the two together. Extremely impressive.
