Anybody have any pre-1900 Brooklyn photos, cards, etc?
Posted By: Dave
I have come across a vintage pin that was described to me as pre-1900 with a member of the Brooklyn team. I have no way of providing scans. Anybody have any pre-1900 Brooklyn pics that would at least show off uniforms from the time period?? Thanks. |

Is it a Cameo Pepsin pin? Do you know the name of the player? |

Dan....I'm not sure what type of pin it is...I have basically no knowledge of pins. It is about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. It is also a little scuffed up...not mint condition or anything. |

If you can provide us with a scan I'm sure someone here will know right away what it is. Pinbacks from the 1890's are very scarce and it could be worth your while even if it's not a Brooklyn player. |

Problem is I don't think I can get a scan unless I buy it from him...maybe I can get by there and take a picture. He is wanting $300 for this. |

does the pin look like a photograph or does the image look painted? Is there any paper ad on the back of the pin? |

It looks more like a photograph (from what I can remember). And if there ever was anything on the back it's either faded or rubbed off by now... |

Sounds interesting, especially if it is 19th. century! It would be nice to see a photo if you can get one. |

My first thought when reading the post was the same as Dan's, an 1898 Cameo Pepsin pin. These are much smaller then the size you describe, though. They are 1.25 inches in diameter and have amazing sepia images and a paper backing. Your pin is much larger and I don't think I’ve ever seen a cameo with a non-portrait pose like the one you described (except the team pins of course). |

I still haven't been able to get a photo of the pin..but did run across this...from my memory its the same exact hat as the player shown on the pin...can anyone correctly identify this team or even the era for sure?? If I can find out the team with the player on the pin perhaps with a little more detective work I can find out the player... |

Thanks...1880's may work for the time period anyway..just trying to make sure the pin isn't after 1900. |

Dave, pinbacks were not invented until 1896 so it can't be earlier than that if it is a celluloid pinback. |
