I stumbled across this article from the Kansas Historical Society about a guy named Dudley Haskell who played baseball in the 1860's. Haskell went on to serve Kansas in the House of Representatives. I was wishful in thinking that I might be able to find some type of photo of him. Luckily I was able to purchase this book about him and it had an engraving of him in it too. Here's the link to the article which might be interesting to some.
http://www.kshs.org/p/cool-things-ba...-and-bat/10283 Haskell had a school in Kansas named after him. It is called Haskell Indian Nations University. There were two great multiple sport athletes that attended school there. One was Jim Thorpe and the other John Levi. Most have not heard of Levi but he was consider one of the great all around athletes of his time. Here's a short article on his career. I was fortunate enough to get two rare photos of him. http://americanindianathletichalloff...m/johnlevi.php
