November 18, 1865
HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, Nov. 18, 1865 Although there are numerous prints within this issue by far the most desired is the half page vertical print showing a baseball game in action, and showing the full expanse of the field with crowd.
The caption reads: "Base-Ball Match Between the 'Athletics' of Philadelphia, Pa. and the 'Atlantics' of Brooklyn, N.Y., Played at Philadelphia, Oct. 30, 1865." There is also a related--albeit short--article on the game as well, headed: "The Base-Ball Match at Philadelphia."
Complete in 16 pages, very nice condition.
