THE NEW YORK TIMES, November 27, 1870
* Baseball as national game
Page 6 has a very nice article taking over a full column headed: "THE NATIONAL GAME", "Close of the First Decade of Ball-Playing" and "Brief Review of the Past Season--The Play of Professionals & Amateurs--The Championship Question" which is a great report of the baseball season. It would also be an early reference to baseball as the "national game".
Eight pages, great condition.
