Hi Bocca, those are sweet! Boaz is a little town but they seem to have a strong baseball team around the turn of the century, I wonder which one is Elbert?

Montgomery Hill Climbers
Here is original photo of 1909-10 Montgomery Hill Climbers. Champ Osteen at lower left. Member of 1904 NYAL. Also, I believe George Whiteman who played for NYAL in 1913 and Del Pratt, another Yankee

Thank you so much! I have just one t-211, a heavily trimmed Derrill Pratt, would welcome a couple others should they wander into frame at some point. I love the artwork of the t210 and t211 era, its one of the things that drew me to net54baseball forums as there is fantastic info here on the subject. Thank you for providing such a great spot to trade notes and discuss the finer points!

Very cool! That's in great shape too, what a fabulous piece! Idk where folks come up with such great game used stuff from so long ago, I haven't seen a Montgomery Rebels gamer since I was a kid and they were being worn on the field. I like to dream there is a country barn somewhere packed with uniforms and old gloves just waiting for us to find.
May I ask, how do you store/display a classic cap? I have some modern game used hats but no idea how to display more than one or two, so they usually stay in a hatbox. Also, same question for anyone with game-used batting gloves, which I have about a dozen pairs of. My wife hates em, says they look like primitive war trophies, so I don't display em! haha Any suggest for how to display them tastefully would be welcome! Quote:

I store them in plastic bags in a plastic container to save them from the bugs. I also display a few in an antique case that's kept them safe. I'm building a website to display them.
Here are few more Southern Association/League caps, including the Atlanta Crackers (late 1930s), Asheville Tourists (late 1960s) and Charlotte Hornets (late 1960s) ... Quote:

This is a fantastic item, the Champ Osteen team pic, is this in your collection? Let me know if you would ever part with it. I can probly name each of them as I have done a LOT of study on this crew and am working on finding the location, great shot!
