Stunning image, Gary and perfect for the thread...lithos, prints, woodcuts, catalogs, envelopes, letterhead, etc., are all fair game! If its printed and on paper from the 19th C. we want to see it!

More amazing items posted recently! Bruce, thank you for your help with everything, especially the heads up on the Fessenden book. Here are a couple more items for tonight. The first is a scorebook copyright dated to 1868 and used to score a few games in 1871 in Iowa. It is a Chadwick scorebook from Peck and Snyder. The second item is a book called Outdoor Sports for Boys from 1866. According to Barry Sloate's article on early baseball books it is a compilation of other previously published woodcuts and descriptions but it is still an early book. Thank you again Bruce for the copy of the article you sent me.

Michael, that Muffin book is super rare, nice one. Alan, you are welcome. I love anything Chadwick related and the Outdoor Sports is early as you say. There is also a color illustrated cover for that one if I recall.
Really enjoying this thread. |

It's not quite 19th century but since someone already posted a picture of the 1902 "Church book" I thought I would post some related items. McVey and Waddell are the size of the book itself; the schedule is like a pamphlet.

I continue to be impressed Michael. I never owned any of Church supplements, calendar’s or schedules. Very nice to see them .

Hopefully 1901 is close enough to count in this thread - this is my only vintage baseball book. Featuring John McGraw on the cover this was apparently written by Fred "Crazy" Schmidt. (https://thebaseballbloggess.com/2021...-crazy-schmit/)
Luckily, I have the piece of paper that is missing from the front cover. If anyone knows a good restorer who would reattach it, please let me know. The book measures 4.5" x 6.5".
