About this photograph

This cabinet card portrait shows Danny Richardson in a New York Giants uniform. The photograph was produced by Goodwin & Co. in 1888 as part of their baseball card series. The print uses the albumen process, a common photographic method of the period, mounted on card stock.

Beyond what the archive record provides, nothing further is documented about Richardson's career with the Giants, the circumstances of this particular portrait sitting, or details about Goodwin & Co.'s baseball card production during this year. The image survives as one example of late nineteenth-century commercial baseball photography.

Compiled from the catalogue record and reference notes on the formats and events involved. The archive record above is the primary source.
