Help with a photo!
 
2 Attachment(s)
I recently bought this photo from an estate sale where I live! I didn't pay very much, but I still hope to learn something about it!

I bought it thinking it was a baseball player. It shows a player with a "K" on the chest and on the hat! Its pasted on a cardboard mount.

Any information that the board could give would be greatly appreciated including:
1) if it actually is a baseball player,
2)if there are any distinguishing characteristics about it,
3) possible years for the picture,
4) possible team and/or league,
5) and if it is not a baseball pic what else it could be

Thanks in advance!

I would say it is a baseball player, and a possible date for it could be around 1905-1910. Beyond that I have no idea.

It appears to be a baseball player to me too.

Thanks guys....
 
Thanks a lot for the help! Dynarl the player I have actually looks somewhat like one of the players in your photo (the guy directly beside the guy in the dark colored sweater).

Travis I thought the same but have no idea who this team is. I bought it off ebay and the seller found it in a book. D.

Here is a closer look at the player for you to compare. D.

On second thought,
 
On second thought, that doesnt really even resemble the guy in my photo!

However, the uniforms look similar. Do you remember which state the photo came from and how much you paid for it?

I think it came from Iowa and I payed about $25. Where did you pick yours up? D.

D,
I bought it at a local estate sale in KY where I live and I ended up buying it and a bunch of odd and end stuff in a box top for $20
