Gray Studio, in Boston, would photograph the Pittsburgh team in the spring of 1887 (Pitts inaugural season in NL, having jumped from the American Association). This pose of Alex McKinnon would become his Old Judge cigarette card pose 315-1. Alex would pass within 4 months of the photoshoot but not before posting some impressive numbers.
