Brilliant cabinet photo featuring a uniformed player holding his baseball glove and gazing off-camera studio backdrop creating a dramatic effect behind him. Wearing an interesting uniform with a turtleneck sweater with striped sleeves and baggy bangs he almost resembles a rugby player if it wasn't for the baseball glove tucked into his left hand. The lack of identifying markings on the well-worn cabinet photo make it impossible to ever identify the player but it remains an excellent piece of baseball history from a time when amateur teams offered players a real shot at The Show.
