1910 Vintage photograph of the Elmhurst Incubators of the California League in uniform and posing at the ballpark. An incredible image because it features black players in uniform (way before integration was accepted) and also for the inclusion of Pop Arlett and also a young bat boy named Russell "Buzz" Arlett who would become a legendary slugger in the 1920's. The black players appear to be named Rose, Taffelmeir and Martin. This is a unique image that is an important piece of baseball history.
