Default 1870 Lincoln Baseball Club Identification Help Please

The cabinet was in a photo album that belonged to either Charles or Clarence Lexow.

I gave Jason some of the CDV's that were included in the album and were somewhat related to the "team" after he won it on REA.
I still have another good bunch of CDV's from the album that I was planning on sending to Jason.

I'm not sure were did Jason or you got the information that the picture was taken at Bonn University.

The Lexows were attending a private education facility by the name of Kortegarnsche Institute (Sp?)

You can check out Arthur Kortegarn's obituary here:

I did a good amount of research prior to consigning it with REA, but nothing relevant was found other that it pictures Clarence Lexow.

That's all I can remember about it.
