Among the many team pictures here, this one stands out because its players are seminarians at Eymard Seminary in Suffern, New York, a Catholic training house for priests. Athletics were a common part of student life at schools like this, and baseball was the most popular game in American towns and campuses in the 1890s and 1900s. The print belongs to the Wittemann Collection at the Library of Congress and is dated only to between 1890 and 1910, so the exact season and the players' names are not recorded.
