This sepia toned photo is exactly 4" x 5 1/16" and is mounted
on a 7" x 8 5/8" grayish brown turn-of-the century type photo-
cardboard, The fine printing at the bottom center is "Copyright 1904
by H. C. Weasner, Buffalo, NY". In the lowermost right corner is
"Photos by Weasner 244 Genesee St."
Obviously, I computer enlarged this photo, so I could provide
a clear and legible depiction.
I acquired this piece up in Cooperstown, NY 12 years ago; from a
an upstate NY collector. It is my understanding that it is a true
original team photo. I have a 1905 Spalding Guide whose information
on the 1904 Eastern League confirms the players portrayed in this photo.
I've already been offered "big bucks" for it; however
I am a true collector and intend to keep it for a while longer.
But, you have aroused my curiosity.....what value do you place
on it ?
