Early Base Ball Tintype, Circa 1880

  • SIGNED Unbound
By
Unbound. Near Fine. Sixth plate tintype. Approximately 2.25" x 3.50". Left-hand corners clipped not affecting the image, presumably to fit into an album page, else near fine. Two young boys, probably young teens, stand uniformed with "R.S." on their shirts; one holding a bat, another a ball. Between them a toddler, presumably a batboy, stands on a chair in a version of the same uniform. Otherwise unidentified, we believe it is from around 1880, likely from the Mid-Atlantic region.
