An Authentic New York Knickerbocker Team Photo Discovery!
looks to be authentic! I still need to choose an auction house, this photo is just fun to look at. The photo pictures 10 well dressed young men in all. 9 of which are original founding members and the 10th man standing in the far right back row is a young awkward looking Henry Chadwick. Some of the easier men to identify a bit quicker than some are..
Henry T. Anthony, Doc Adams, Alexander Cartwright, Henry Chadwick, William Wheaton and Charles H. Birney. The other 4 men require a bit more attention to detail. Feel to take a peak, i look forward to all comments. In addition to the side by side comparisons, i included 2 transparency/overlays on the very bottom. i used 2 examples i found online, one for Doc Adams, and the other for Henry Chadwick Poll Q. Like Dis-like Not Sure

I'm certainly no expert, but my eyes do not see the matches in many of the pictures used for identifications.

There is no documentation that I know of Henry Chadwick being aware of, let alone having a picture taken with, the Knickerbockers in 1846. I believe his interest in baseball did not surface until the 1850s when he encountered the game while covering cricket as a reporter.

I like the content of the photo and the potential history of it but sadly I am not sure
