Turn of the Century Photo Help
 
2 Attachment(s)
Picked up this 16 X 20 photo today. Very cool image. Can't make out the uniforms or identify faces of these guys. Uniforms are mixed. Anyone seen this one before? Any help would be appreciated.

I can't help you out Toby, but some of those guys kind of look to be related, if I was guessing.
Also, if I can buy the rights to the image of the guy in the upper right and the one second from left one the bottom, I think I can make us some loot selling those life sized pillow cases to some chicks I know.
Hope all is well,
Bob

That's awesome...looks like it's in really good condition, too (obviously except for the crease).

I can't really provide any insight...my only guess is that it's from even before the turn of the century. Uniforms and general style look like they're from the Old Judge era.

I would guess around 1895-1900.

I agree with Barry's dating, I'd put it mid 1890s to very early 1900s. The uniforms, shoes etc, indicate the players could very well be from the end of the 19th century.
