HARPER'S  WEEKLY, July 28, 1888 

* Great baseball print

The front page of this issue has one of the best 19th century baseball prints to be found, which shows a batter, catcher & umpire and is captioned: "A Ball Or A Strike--Which?" drawn by T. de Thurstrup. There are also many other prints within this issue including a fullpg: "View of Town & Country in Honduras'", a halfpg: '"Shipping Watermelons by Rail from Atlanta, Georgia"  & fullpg: "Immigrants Waiting to be distributed in the Coal Regions of Penna." The Supplement issue has a great doublepage centerfold: "City of Rochester & Its Notable Buildings" and includes a great view of the city. More.
Sixteen pages, bit of extremely light damp staining to the bottom one-third of the front leaf (almost unnoticeable) little such staining on the inside leaves. Generally in very nice condition and an ideal issue for display with this great baseball print.
