The photo of Quinn had him belonging to Boston at the time, which circa 1888 would have put him during his stint at the Boston Beaneaters. The Beaneaters franchise had several name changes and locations, but are now the Atlanta Braves. The hardest part of doing this card was trying to identify a logo for the Beaneaters, but a bit of archival work managed to find the red Boston typographic for the team which I managed to convert into a logo for the card.
I've tried it in two versions - the original monochrome, and a colorized version
