Hailing from the period of the First World War in the mid-to-late-1910s, we offer a high-quality Spalding Hornell, NY baseball uniform consisting of jersey and matching pants, along with a matching team photo. A rare full-sleeve model, the thick cream-coloured wool jersey with cadet collar and ventilated arm pits houses a royal blue felt "H" over the left breast, with matching Spalding labels to both the jersey and pants. All of the original mother of pearl buttons for the both the jersey and pants are intact, with just some toning to the material of each, along with a small area of loss to the felt "H", and moth holes to the reverse of the jersey as well as a few small stains to the lower front. The period cleats show heavy wear throughout, while the Reach mitt is a buckle-back specimen with cloth label and heavy use shown. The team image is a modern copy 4" x 6" photo, with the team with matching uniforms depicted in a rural NY setting.
