Lot Essay

Assemblage of (11) original baseball themed tin types and (1) carte de visite arranged in a Victorian tramp art frame for display. The collection includes various subjects such as Abner Doubleday CDV, several multi-player tin types with players wearing bib front uniforms and holding equipment, pair of young boys with bat and ball, and player in uniform standing with bat. General condition is very fine with scattered age/handling wear while most retain very string image contrast. Wonderful collection of 19th century baseball images that perfectly relay the character of the game during its formative period: Range GD-EX/MT
