			One verisimilitude issue with the colorization of Bennett: he was never with the Mets in Spring Training and would never have worn the home pinstripes anywhere but at Shea Stadium.

			Thanks for all the postings, rrb77, but I think Harry Curtis is in a 1907 New York Giants uniform rather than a Highlanders uniform.  The two unis are similar, but Curtis is known to have played for the Giants that year.  The cap is also more consistent with that of the Giants.

			Guilty as charged! The spring-training background is from a Bill Murphy Topps Vault slide. Maybe one day I'll sub the background for Shea....

			Does anyone have all the Manchester Maroons photos? (The known photos of guys with that club appear to be the only known ones of Bill Irwin, Rooney Sweeney, and John Shoupe)

			I think those photos are of the 1888 Manchester team.  The Manchester Historical Sociey has the 1886 team photo in their collection (which I've attached).

			Sadly that is the only known photo of Sweeney, and much of his life post-baseball is unknown at this time.

			Aw i see. As for the known 1888 photos of Sweeney Irwin and Shoupe, do you happen to have the full pictures? And are there any other existing photos of any of any of the other 1888 members with the team?
