Could this be the earliest single image of Brouthers?

Sorry to disappoint. There are several images of Brouthers pre-Detroit (at least on team items). That said, why do you think your new (awesome) cabinet is pre-Detroit? Isn’t the studio in Detroit? Did I miss something? Are we even sure it’s from 1886 (or before)?
EDIT: just saw one of your prior posts that mentions the Cabinet showing noting him as a Buffalo player. Very interesting. I hadn’t seen that before. That certainly lends some credence to this being issued in 1886 before the season started as Buffalo sold some of their best players to Detroit due to financial troubles. Very interesting indeed.
Here’s my checklist of the earliest Brouthers items:
