I saw this on an online form and they estimate it to be around 1880. I'm not finding any sets like this from that time in the database. Any idea what it is from?

We can't see the entire scene playing out in the card, but IMO.... There was no chance for a double play.

It is more likely that there was 'A Chance for a Double Entendre'. ------------------------------- Ted Musgrave card collection 98.9% Complete: Cards Known: 1013, Cards Owned: 1002 I prefer the company of people who disagree with me for the right reasons over the company of those who agree with me for the wrong reasons.
