This c1901 group portrait shows the Princeton baseball team posed in Princeton, New Jersey, the university town that fielded one of the stronger collegiate nines of the era. The record credits the print to Burr McIntosh, who registered it for copyright, a step that was common for photographers selling images of popular subjects. Team photographs like this one were often sold to players, alumni, and newspapers, and they recorded the uniforms, caps, and formal poses of college baseball at the start of the twentieth century.
