October 26, 1867
HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, Oct. 26, 1867
* Rare baseball team print
* Post Civil War era
The front page shows; "The Music of the Street--The Organ Grinder". Other prints within including: "National Cemetery at Fredericksburg, Virginia, a nice full page: "Gathering Grapes--An October Scene on the Hudson". "The Seal Rocks & Cliff House near San Francisco, California" "San Francisco and Its Outer Harbor, Looking Toward the Golden Gate".
But likely the most significant print in the issue is a nice, nearly half page print captioned: "The Champion Nine of the Union Base-Ball Club of Morrisania, New York" showing nine members of the baseball team in uniform, two members holding bats and another player what appears to be a catcher's mask. There is a related article titled: "The Base-Ball Championship" on the facing page.
Sixteen pages, never bound nor trimmed, minor edge wear, generally nice condition.
