This one is interesting and brought up a bit of interest when I posted this on this board in 2004.

This is a 1904 tintype that appears to have come from Del Howard's estate. The picture shows George Moriarty, Del Howard, Carl Lundgren and Davy Jones. The image was apparently done in Brooklyn. GM, CL and DJ all played for the Cubs in 1904 but I am not sure how Del Howard fits into this. All of the names are written in pencil on the paper cover and the man in the middle of the back row is listed as "Gande - who took us through China Town tonite." Any thoughts from anyone who didn't see this in 2004?

BTW, the guy in the upper left is listed as "Lowe" and I believe is Bobby Lowe who did play for the Cubs in 1903.
