Baseball poster 1895 Calvert Litho Detroit
Looking for some more information on a baseball poster from 1895 Calvert Litho from Detroit. I found one similar in content but different color uniforms and the size is different. Anyone know more about this poster? The poster measures 33" x 40"

I think these posters were able to be customized by the customer. This one was marketed as "Base Ball Poster No. 281".
Information from the Library of Congress. https://www.loc.gov/item/2008677269/ |

Wow that is beautiful! Have you looked at it under magnification to confirm it's a chromolithograph and how thick is the paper stock?

The poster was auctioned in London so I was not able to examine it. It sold for about 120$ USD

Now what concerns me is that the back is white with no toning at all. I've handled multiple lithographs and own a bunch of originals and they all have some level of discoloration on the back. EDITED: 100% modern lithograph ie reproduction. Last edited by aquarius31; 10-17-2018 at 10:58 AM. |
