This is not the photographer who took the image for Goodwin and Co. In fact, the photograph seems off (could be the scan). Is it definitely an albumen photograph?

Thanks! It's paper on a linen backing with metal strips on top and bottom with a hook so it could be hung in a store window.

Jay, My memory is not the best, but I think I posted this years before and you advised that it is no good. It is a scan I have on file. I don't remember where I got it. Maybe eBay. I'll see if I can find the card/photo. The scan does look fuzzy. Here's 2 better photos for the thread....

Par for the course, but I feel like an idiot right now. I can't find the Julie Freeman, so I must have sent it back to the sellers. I need to delete the scan so I don't post it as one of my prize cards 5 years from now. Forgot I had this one while I was looking around. I really need to get organized or as my High School baseball coach used to say, "go to school."

That last one is a beauty. Gray did all the NL 1887 photographs for Goodwin & Co except for the Giants’ ones.

Great image. Do you have any guess on what Massachusetts team that might be? Worcester?

Here is one from my collection that I've always thought was just beautifully set and laid out.

Here is a close up of the most interesting area and subject in the image. Aside from the black and gold label Spalding bat held by the player standing, we have the catcher with his mitts, mask, and chest protector. Just an awesome reflection of a period backstop with all his gear.

Image comes from a studio out of Vermont.
