I had the cabinets bookmarked and had a conversation with a board member about them. He thought they were ok and had me convinced, given the info and the seller. I almost set snipes but didn't want to go into uncharted territory again.

Bringing up an old thread. I recently picked up the original 1889 Oakland Colonels team cabinet card in LOTG. I think these early California League team cabinets are just fascinating. Love the players in their formal wear and their big mustaches!

Would love to see some California League cabinets! Anyone with any insight into these? How tough are they? Any board members own any?

Thanks,
Ryan

Congrats on that pickup. Those cabinets are super rare (as well as most 19th century PCL stuff)...I imagine a few board members have others too.

I have the Pioneer team cabinet. Will post scan when I get a chance to do so.
