Star BB Club CdV
I just picked up this CdV from my friend Gary (thanks Gary). The card is identified on the back as the Star BB Club. However, in the mid to late 1860s (when I think this is from) there were five teams with the exact name of the Star BB Club (from Brooklyn, New Brunswick, NJ, Sunbury, PA, Wakefield, RI, and Virden, IL). There are also several teams named Stars, Southern Stars, etc. Can anyone shed some light as to who the team might be? It is a unique image, as the team seems to be posing on their playing field, as opposed to the typical indoor shot. They also seem to be a serious team as they are posed with eight bats (a lot for a team at that time to own) and all the uniforms are exact matches. The big building in the back looks like some type of factory. Perhaps this is a clue. Thanks for any help that can be offered!
