David SmithThanks for everyone's help with the books I listed on eBay a week or so ago.
The Cap Anson book sold but the Old Boston Boys didn't. I had a Reserve Price of $250. The last one I know of that sold was a couple of years ago (I think) and it went for $400 in a large auction. I thought my price seemed reasonable since it wasn't a large auction house. Oh well.
If anyone is interested in the book, The Old Boston Boys and the Games They Played, it is still available. It is a Limited Edition copy. Only 250 were printed and mine is numbered 183.
Here is the completed eBay auction number 110209338310 for a better description.
Please E mail me if you are interested or have any questions.
Thanks again,
David
Edited to add pictures. The first is of the front cover of the book. The second (the Harvard Nine of 1867) is of an illustration in the book.
