CarltonHendricksThis is pretty far off from baseball memorabila...but I think it is my earliest piece...c1862....Lincoln was president from 1861-1865 so that helps put it in perspctive... It was printed by Endicott and Co. of New York City. I'm open to correction but as far as I know it is the earliest American sports related chromolithograph poster extant. Dimensions are: 28 3/4" tall by 22 1/2" wide
Barry, Could you please repost your Peck & Snyder advertising banner from 1869? I have to see that!!!! And Jason..Please repost your 1861 Eagle Base Ball Club Civil War Sword...that I gotta see!!!!!
