I located photos for Vivian "Doc" Potts who caught for the 1892 Washington club and John W. Coleman of the 1890 Phillies. The duo formed a battery for the Bristol, PA club in the 1890's. I was provided with a photo copy of an old team photo that appeared in the local paper of the early 1890's Bristol team by the Bristol Cultural and Historical Foundation. Using the newspaper reference, I was able to find a slightly better quality version on Newspapers.com The image appears in the January 27, 1954 issue of the Bristol Daily Courier.

Coleman is holding a bat, while catcher Potts is seated in front of a catcher's mask.
