"Dunn, Pitcher, Chicago, from the Old Judge series (N172) for Old Judge Cigarettes" is a black and white photograph of a baseball player by Goodwin & Company. It was created between 1887 and 1890. The image is a classic example of trading cards, which were often used to advertise products like cigarettes. The card depicts a baseball player in uniform, holding a bat, with the team name "Chicago Maroons" and the player's name and position "Dunn, P." printed at the bottom. The photo is now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, providing a glimpse into the history of baseball and early 20th century advertising.
