Description

One black and white photographic print mounted onto gray speckled cardboard mat. The board has a pressed decorative edge around the photo. The photograph is of the base ball team "Genesee." There are nine players in uniform and one man wearing a suit. The players wear a striped ball hat, a partially buttoned shirt with dark lettering, quilted pants, a belt, and boots. The man is wearing a dark suit and tie. This is a studio shot, with a landscape and columns on the painted backdrop and a carpet on the ground. On the ground in the front is a catcher's mask, catcher's glove, a bat, and a dark leather ball. The players appear to be in their late teens or early 20s, and some appear to be younger than that. The name of the photography studio is marked on the lower right corner: "Heberaer 196 Main St Rochester, N.Y."
