Spectacular team cabinet the Beckett holder misidentifying the team as the Kansas City Federal League ballclub. The photo actually pictures the Kansas City Blues of the American Association. The Blues team was loaded with future and former major leaguers most notably Jake Beckley and Smoky Joe Wood (though Wood is unfortunately not pictured in the photo). Pictured in the photo are: TOP ROW (L-R): John Sullivan Kitty Brashear Hugh Hill Joe Crisp Goodwin Nick Carter Bill Hallman. MIDDLE ROW (L-R): Tom Downey Walter Carlisle. FRONT ROW (L-R): Kinlock Swan Chick Brandom Jake Beckley (HOF) Monte Cross Drummond Brown Wish Egan. The photo itself grades GOOD 2 from Beckett due to wear around the edges of the mount measuring just shy of 9" x 7" total. An outstanding early minor league photo featuring a future Hall of Famer.
