The images are the same as the Hoag composite that is in Ellard's book, except that there are only 9 images used instead of 10. The composite in Ellard's book has two images of Wright, one identifying him as a Center Fielder and the other as their Captain. Obviously, they are in a different order also. Here are the two images to compare. Last edited by Baseball Rarities; 01-03-2017 at 07:45 PM.

Not a big deal, but it looks like Charlie Gould's image was reversed in the Ellard book as well.

Kevin- The Gould image looks to be different entirely.

Do you think that the small and large images of Harry Wright in the Ellard book are the same?

That one is a little tougher to tell, but I think they are slightly different.

Bruce - thanks for this research! So I have a question about the Huff photo. I had no idea of the date the photo was taken but you seem to be certain and it makes sense it was while they were in Irvington (just an 18 minute bike ride away from Newark today according to google).
But do you have any thoughts as to why? Did they set a record of any kind by that date? ( I don't think so). Were they highly touted by then so it was a no brainer that a photographer would ask or be asked to capture their image? And why this particular photographer in New Jersey to take the important team photo instead of a photographer in Cincinnati back in April/May before they left town? Sorry if any of these answers have been covered- I own a reprint of the Ellard book as well as 'The First Boys of Summer' but haven't gotten into them yet. Thanks again for the research! peter
