Some cdvs
Recently picked up a small collection of pre 1880 images, including these 3 cdvs.
I don’t have any confirmed information on any of them as far as teams or id’s, other than photographer information on 2 of them. However, I have found a reference to a Hamilton Ohio Resolutes who played the 1870 Cincinnati Red Stockings, losing badly. There is a star on his cap.
The earliest, possibly circa 1860 or so, is interesting as a it depicts a transitional batting stance between cricket and base ball.
Appreciate any thoughts or help.
