Vintage photograph capturing a meeting of the National League team owners, circa 1911. Fourteen individuals are pictured posing together in a meeting room, including the following team owners: John T. Brush (Giants), August Hermann (Reds), Charles Ebbets (Dodgers), Barney Dreyfuss (Pirates), Horace Fogel (Phillies), Martin Stanford "Stanley" Robison (Cardinals), and Charles Murphy (Cubs). The other gentleman have not been identified, but are most likely league officials or team secretaries. Although this obviously a vintage photo dating from the period, it has been mounted to a heavy cardboard backing and therefore will not be accepted for evaluation by PSA. As such, no guarantees can be made with regard to Type designation. A second vintage photo of an unidentified player appears on the reverse of the cardboard backing. The crystal-clear photo (8.75x6.75") displays a few light surface scratches and is otherwise in Excellent to Mint condition. Culled from the legendary Brown Brothers Photo Archive.
