The baseball knowledge of people on this site never fails to amaze me. Thanks so much for the willingness to share your expertise. I also found this picture in the Burns and Ward book "Baseball" (p. 69) that accompanied the PBS series. There was no date in the caption or reference.

By the way, if anyone is interested in using the photo for a website or anything else, by all means do so. If you require a better scan, I can send you a much larger (6.4 MB) bitmap image. There were two other silver prints in the lot as well: one of a very old automobile lineup in Union Square (NYC, not SF) and another of recruiting for the Old Guard Regiment in the same location (the notation on the back reads that the recruiting was for the Spanish-American War, and that the picture was a part of the Philip Degon Exibit (sic) -- just had to use it). If you'd like to see or use them, just ask. They're already scanned.
