1908 World's Champion Base Ball Game
Until earlier today, I thought I knew about and had at least seen images of all 19th Century and early 20th Century baseball board games that are in the wheelhouse of my collecting interests. But then I saw the advertisement shown below, and I am blown away.
Has anyone ever seen the actual game? It sure looks like it made it to production since it was available in this catalog. It is not in Dr. Mark Cooper's book and I have never seen it anywhere else. The box features portraits of Cubs players Frank Chance and John Kling, as well as Fielder Jones and Billy Sullivan of the White Sox. Appears to have great graphics too.
Would love to find out if this game exists out there somewhere!
