Among the team photographs on this board, the Star Bloomer Girls stand out for the name printed right on the card. Bloomer Girls teams were barnstorming clubs of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the name came from the loose bloomer-style uniforms the women wore on the field, a break from the long skirts of the day. Teams like this one drew crowds with exhibition games in small towns and cities, often against local men's clubs. Picture postcards such as this were inexpensive souvenirs, so the card also shows how the team promoted itself to fans.
