I think it's from an 1860-something team photo if I recall since I know for a fact I seen the full picture before but don't know where I did.
The last major revision I made to the list was on March 9, 2022, when I added "found" pages for players, manager, and umpires, so that is the date on the file. Since then, it has been a living document which I update as new finds are made, or players are re-added to the missing list.

As for the player identified as Popplein, I have not seen identifications for that photo, and I know there is (or at least was) some question about whether the major league player was George or his brother Joe.

Here is a copy of the full Baltimore Pastimes team photo; I have not seen a copy of this photo with player IDs. While it is labeled 1867, I am also aware that there has been some question as to the specific year the photo was taken, which makes definitive player IDs even tougher.
