This image was a reprint in 1923 initially, and based on the stampings, repurposed again in 1926, 1927 and 1932.
The original auction description indicated it originated from the 1913 season.
However...
On page 139 of A Portrait of Baseball Photography, Yee/Fogel describe it as a Bain image from the 1901/1902 season.
It's clearly a home uniform from the 1901 - 1904 span (the white hat pinpoints 1901-1902).
I'd love to be able to nail down the exact year, though. Not sure how to do that.
