Default 1848 Baseball Daguerreotype on Mastro..
Posted By: jason

Barry, I think you are right about there not being a dag in existence picturing a bat. The earliest photograph I have seen that actually pictures one is an ambrotype of a young Stars player with a bat on the table (I think this was sold by Mastro for Rucker in in 94).

Has anyone seen any earlier than this image? How many ambrotypes showing a bat exist?
