I think the consensus was that it was a family reunion photo with a pickup baseball game. There was another similar photo with a dead guy in his casket cropped into a team photo (If I remember correctly). These were shown probably ten years ago now...

I believe this "Score-card," which shows the results of the NL games played on August 16, 1889, would have been posted on the following day in the store of Geo. W. Cochran & Co., tobacconist, which was located at 1115 Pennsylvania Ave. N.W., Washington DC. Cochran started his business 1847, and by the 1880's, was the largest such establishment south of Baltimore. S. Ottenberg & Bros. operated a large cigar factory (factory no. 1065) in lower Manhattan, NYC.

You will note that John Clarkson of Boston, who led the NL in most categories, including wins and shutouts, in 1889, hurled a 2-hit shutout over Cleveland. And, both Connie Mack (Washington) and Buck Ewing (NY) caught losing efforts that day.

Peter,

Out of curiosity, does the Big Guy complete a set of 50 or exclusively the BB Players only? Either way, congratulations!
