Hi-
I recently acquired the poster/print shown below of a Cap Anson cartoon. It is a cartoon from the late 1880s that appeared in the Chicago Tribune. Mine is blank backed and is roughly 15 inches tall and 10.5 inches wide. I tried a Google search for Cap Anson cartoon and found two images of this online. One is on a site titled A Pictorial Chronology of Baseball in the 19th Century (part 13) by John Thorn and the second is on Cycleback.com 1800s prints site. That one is titled as a printing plate from 1886.

Can anyone provide any additional information about this item? Does it date to the late 1880s or was it made later? Was it given out by the newspaper? Any additional information is greatly appreciated.
