Unlike the single-frame views on this board, this image is a wide panorama of the Boston ball grounds, and the "#3" in its title suggests it belongs to a series of such views. Boston's South End Grounds, home to the city's early professional clubs, drew large crowds in the 1870s and 1880s, when baseball was becoming a mass spectacle. Panoramic views like this one let viewers take in the whole field, the stands, and the surrounding streets at once, which makes them useful for seeing how a ballpark was laid out in that era.
