1888 Joseph Hall Athletics team cabinet card - sharp image with some edge trimming.

c. 1885 Augusta team image. Rare image from the short-lived Southern League. Many of the players from the Southern League also played in the AA and NL. This image is a large 10" x 13" and has some defects (see image) but has been matted for it's protection. Scorer holds Spalding scorebook, catcher has fingerless workman gloves and team mascot is shown.

1880's baseball player cabinet card


1880's baseball player cabinet card #2. Some staining to lower left of card.

Beautiful late 1870's integrated baseball team cabinet card with very clear Spalding logo baseball bats.

A closer view of one of the bats.

1870's Oakland Neb. BBC team cabinet card.

Civil war albumen image produced in the 1880's showing soldiers playing "ball". No bat in image. Not exactly sure what game of "ball" this is but interesting none-the-less.

Very interesting grouping of 16 scorebooks, apparently kept by a scout, covering hundreds of PCL games between 1958 and 1969. Most of the games are Vancouver, Tacoma and Seattle. Some of the names I recall coming across are; Brooks Robinson, Willie McCovey, Tony LaRussa, Lou Pineilla, Steve Carlton, Gaylord Perry and many others. One game even had Satchell Paige pitching (the final game of the season) and I believe he would have been around 60 years old then. There are also a smattering of professional games he went to including the Yankees/Braves World Series game.

Email me for questions or pricing.
