Jay, that 1890 Giants PL cabinet is cool on so many levels. Beyond the obvious importance of the team/league, the portrait layout is very interesting and a colored mount with cool graphics never hurts.
I also really like game-in-progress photos (like Tony's) and Gary's National Nine. Fantastic cards.
I'll bump this back to top with a few more, some of which I've already posted (sorry), but still among my favorites. An 1886 Tomlinson team photo, 1886 Game in Detroit, and an 1888 game on the road, Detroit vs Philly. The 1888 image is a modern photo developed from the original glass plate negative, not sure if an original photo exists.
