The HOF believes there are no actual photos of the Dauvray cup.

Larry Bowman wrote an article in the National Pastime (don't know the issue date as I just have a photocopy).

He writes the following:
In 1893 Boston won the cup for a third time and was awarded permanent possession. A line drawing of the cup was printed in the Kansas City Star on October 8th, 1893. The cup then dropped out of the public eye and disappeared. The line drawing is the only likeness that I have found.

It appears the cup hasn't been seen in over 100 years.
At least a few of the Dauvray player medals survived and are in the HOF.
Just wondering if any New York medals survived.
