Ballplayers & Ladies
Found on ebay, it was listed as being from the 1870s but I don't think so based on the uniform styles.

Not sure what the context for this one is. I found it on ebay without much info to go on but if I had to guess it's probably a summer camp or something.

Bub Stephens, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania semipro team, 1966
These are pictures of my uncle with a semipro club in Wilkes-Barre, PA in 1966. I recovered them from the wreckage of the house after the fire earlier this year.
They were taken at Artillery Park which is where Babe Ruth supposedly hit the world's longest home run decades earlier.
