(It has the colored collar but not the colored cap-brim, and the color on the collar is blue, rather than the proper [given the team name] brown, as Dressed to the Nines depicts the uniform.)
Can anyone find a photograph of Tillie in St. Louis? Toy surprise not required.

Walker's M101-4 and M101-5 cards, shown below, respectively, both picture him with the Browns.
