I've only got one 19th century cabinet, so it is an easy call from my PC. But, it has it all: mustaches, a catcher's mask and chest protector, ring bats, gloves, a pug, a ghost on a bench, ties, pillbox hats, a train, dapper managers, and a factory belching smoke in the window reflection.

All are GREAT, but I have to lean to Bryan .... It does have it ALL !!!!

Probably easy to say who the catcher was (with mask, of course ). But, I would also assume the other fellow in front row, with ball in hand was the pitcher, and the intense looking guy on left was the best hitter. That is the way they indicated these things back then, I think

Fun stuff, Scott

Just one favorite cabinet? Isn't that like asking which is your favorite child?

I'm kind of fond of these three. I like the 1889 Columbus Solon team cabinet because of the odd presentation. I like the 1888 Deacon White cabinet because of the scarcity of the subject and the odd pose. And I like the 1888 Philadelphia Athletic team cabinet because it contains Gus Weyhing, with whose nephew I was friendly.
