Nice job but I must say that the glove shown in the close-up is very inaccurate for 1886. It has webbing between the thumb and forefinger and gloves didn't have that feature until the 20th century. Also only a few fielders (The catcher and first baseman usually) were the only fielders that wore gloves. In the 1890's the rest of the fielders began wearing gloves.
Nice video!
