Roscoe Coughlin 1890

William Edward "Roscoe" Coughlin colorized. I couldn't find a reference for the Chicago Maroons. Baseball Reference shows Coughlin suiting up with the 1890 Chicago Colts. Threads of our game details that the team was called the Colts and the Black Stockings. Palette.fm provides backgrounds

From Threads of Our Game:
February 1890, Chicago (NL) v. St. Augustine, exhibition game: “There was a great cheer when the Chicagos appeared on the field. Their uniform is a light gray, with black stockings, black caps and trimmings of the same color.” From the Chicago Inter Ocean, February 15, 1890. Research from Don Stokes.


****EDIT****
I have amended the image to attempt to emulate the sample image that UKBaseballfan supplied on the next page (Thanks!). I don't know much about pre 1900 baseball. Any additional information that can be supplied with images is helpful. Hope this one works better!
