I don't know bats, so somebody else needs to chime in.

Gilbert & Bacon reached a partnership in 1875. Gilbert retired in 1886 so there is your range C. 1875-1886.

Thanks-- this image is NOT marked by Gilbert & Bacon.

The backdrop is the SAME as used by Gilbert & Bacon on their cabinet cards (1887/ 1888).

is it possible gilbert and bacon produced items later than 86? i have a football cabinet that would shock me if it was pre-90.....actually i thought it was mid 90's. i could be wrong.....i'll scan it if anyone wants a look.....
