I received a PM from someone wanting to see some more 19th century cabinets. If I remember correctly, I was told this is a California college team, but I would have to find the auction details to be sure. As per the verso, the studio was located in San Buenaventura, Cal. which apparently is the official name of Ventura, Cal. However, Ventura College was established in 1925, so it is either a lower level school, or not a school team at all. Ventura High School was established in 1889, so perhaps it is a high school team (although these guys look older to me). Maybe it was just a local team not affiliated with a school...anyway, they did win a trophy, so I guess they were pretty good.
