Outdoor photo postcard of 8 baseball players + 1 other (manager?). Appears to be 2, possibly 3 different teams: 5 have 'NPAC' on the front of their uniform. 2 with ‘-OVER-‘, and one in light colored uniform. ‘CYKO’ photographic paper dates it to 1904-1920s Some staining on back. Dating the Photograph (likely 1908–1916) 1. Uniform Lettering (“NPAC” and “OVER”) Block-letter chest monograms of this style appear after 1905 and are widespread by 1908–1915. The mixed uniforms (some “NPAC,” some “OVER”) suggest either: A combined team, A challenge match, or A league where players reused older jerseys. This mixing is common in pre‑WWI amateur leagues. 2. Equipment The catcher’s mask and gloves are still pre‑webbing, consistent with 1905–1915. Bats remain thick-handled with no pronounced knob — again pre‑1920. 3. Clothing of the Non‑Players The man in the light suit and hat is wearing a 1910s style summer suit. The man in the white shirt and trousers has a 1910–1917 silhouette.
