Why does this apparently picture members of the Hartford Blues? What is the basis for this i.d.? Also, it's a little blurry, and tough to make out the faces.

The basis of the id, although not the most sound of arguments, is that the members are in front of the United States Hotel in Hartford, CT, which housed many of the Hartford ball players during that time. Perhaps, instead, it is a visiting team.

Thanks for your help/interest.

It's better to try and do facial recognition, rather than just assume since they are in front of the hotel it must be the Blues. If you could provide a clearer scan (may not be able to) I will see if any of the faces look familiar. I do think it's a beautiful image, regardless of who they are.

I wish I could provide a better scan, but it may not be in the cards. I'll see if I can get a better scan on this site. I appreciate your help so far.
