Would appreciate input on the attached photograph, especially opinions as to age. Pelican Lakes appears on front of shirts.

I would guesstimate 1900 to 1910, with absolutely nothing to base that on.

What we can see of the uniforms and civilian attire suggests something just a shade later to us, maybe 1915-1920. Could well be wrong about that. But there are baseball history / photography / uniform experts you can (and should) ask on-line at Net54Baseball...
Is there any writing on the back of the photo that provides any little bit of information? There are "Pelican Lakes" in Louisiana, Minnesota, Colorado...
Also, a scan of the photo would be more helpful than an angled, hand-held, camera view.

I agree with the others. The fact we have two horse drawn carriages in the background, and no sign of automobiles indicates this is most likely pre 1920s. By the early teens autos had surpased the the number of buggies.
