"Seery, Left Field, Indianapolis" is a black and white photograph by Goodwin & Company, created in 1887 as part of the "Old Judge Cigarettes" series. The photograph shows a baseball player, Seery, who played for the Indianapolis team. He stands with his arms crossed in front of a simple backdrop, with a baseball bat leaning against the wall next to him. This photograph, part of a series of baseball player cards, is a prime example of 19th-century sports photography.
