That's a spectacular image and great research. There's an 1859 Harper's woodcut depicting an important cricket match- coincidentally we've been discussing it over on the memorabilia side. Is there a connection between the CdV and the woodcut?

Edited to say the color print you've included is from Harper's, but I was referring to the game in progress that's on the same page as the baseball print.
