Circa 1909-1910 Ft. Worth Cats Panoramic Photo
 

Moving some things around and don't think I have ever shared this circa 1909-1910 Ft. Worth Cats Panoramic Photo. I have had it for over 20 years and attempted to ID the players in the photo from various publications of the era and have only succeeded in IDing a few.

Thought others might like to see it...

That is a great picture and the images and details of the picture are so sharp.

Hopefully you can identify some of the players

That is a awesome pic of my favorite minor league team.

I think that’s Rex in the front row…

I do not believe that is Rex Ryan the football Coach...:(

It's the 1910 Fort Worth Panthers.

Very nice Don

Thanks for helping solve the mystery

You're Welcome, Jeffrey. The guy in the striped cap is catcher John Francis a recruit that never played on the team. Most likely the photo was taken before the season started.

Well.....I am not 100% certain that it's the 1910 team. The guy in the striped cap is also in the 1909 team photo from the guide and ID'd as Greene, which certainly looks more like the player in the panoramic. Also I believe that Bill Brady is the player the fourth player from the left of the panoramic and Powell is third from right and a few others I have tentatively tied to the '09 team pic.

It is either one year or the other I do believe...

You could be right on 1909. Here's the team from August 1909 Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Yes, as Green/e and Powell are both Catchers...I will try to match some more names tomorrow to fill in the blanks.

I have never collected cool old pictures. What are the dimensions and value of something like this?

He must have chased off the team Panther, just so he could get in the picture.

This one is smaller than most, 19" x 8 1/2" most are 36" wide+/- and about the same height. Depending on the team and year, they are only a few hundred dollars to low five figures. This one has a local affiliation to where I live and is a pretty well collected team, so I am guessing anywhere from 1-2k if it went to auction.

Here are a few other photos to help you out.

Bill Brady-Dred Cavender-Ike Pendleton-John Fillman.
