Here is a very early cabinet (September 18, 1866) from the Brooklyn Excelsiors southern tour's first game against the Washington Nationals. Both teams are pictured, along with Henry Chadwick and National's team president Arthur Gorman (later a senator from Maryland and a member of the Mills Commission). The star of the Excellsiors was Joe Leggett. I have also included images of the back of the cabinet (someone in error changed the original date to 1870), a key to identifying the people, and a second known skinned copy in a scrapbook in the the NYPL collection.
