Default The Beggerstaff Brothers

Kevin...I'm not 100% sure but I think it's by William Nicholson...see the same one in the link above...scroll down to John Kanuit's booth...Nicholson and James Pryde were late 19th-early 20th century English artists who collaborated and called themselves the Beggerstaff Brothers....they did a series of 12 sports prints but this baseball wasn't in the lineup....golf, boxing, coaching, cricket, etc...

Also there's a football one like yours...Green and black in color as I recall...the art style is very much like Nicholson's 12 sports prints....hope this helps a little
