The first photo is definitely football players. Doane College is my wife's alma mater. Great photo. |

I'm with Dan on this one. The CdV doesn't look like baseball, so football is a good guess. It also seems pretty late for a CdV, perhaps 1875-80. |

dan knows much more about photographs than i do but i thought the bib style of jersey would date it to 1870's-1880's. |

Yes, the first photo is football. The giveaway is the particular type of lace-up jersey that they have on. The CDV size is a little odd though. Must be a late carryover since the image depicts 1880's footballers and most CDV's were gone by then. |

Bib uniforms were common in the 1870s and uncommon in the 1890s. When I first saw the bib uniform, 1870s came to mind. However, the big padded glove establishes the team as later. There were gloves in the 1870s, but they were unpadded and fingerless, almost like bicycle racer's gloves. |

Bib jerseys were uncommon, but not unheard of in the 1890s. |

I'll bet that's a female bloomers baseball player. That's a boudoir background, and it would |

It's a man....David Tipton is written on the back. This is circa 1890-95 and quite possible this is a teammate of Zane Grey who also played for the Delphos Reds during that time period. |

if you were a guy that looked like a woman that looked like a guy, made to wear an old bib, -and you were being made to stand in front of a boudoir background that challenged your womanly manhood even moreso? |

Wow, thats a coincidence, huh. Is yours a CDV or a Cabinet photo? Interesting that yours has a more elaborate photographers mark being that it is the same photographer. |

Not too much of a coincidence as we got them from the same seller a couple of months apart. I think I am going to hang on to mine - I do not believe there was any identification on it. |

Keith - fantastic items, once again! I think you need to start a thread - show me your favorite team cabinets/cdv's/imperials. |

Also, wanted to add that I studied the baseball cabinet photo with magnification and the photo paper looks very similar to a 1880s Pach Bros photo I have. Not saying that it is 1880s rather than 1890s or anything, just that it appears 19th century. |
