July 27, 1878

HARPER'S WEEKLY, New York, July 27, 1878 

* "Blackville" baseball scene
* Famous Thomas Nast print


Perhaps the most notable print is the very nice full page illustration: "Baseball at Blackville -- The 'White Stockings' Against the 'Black Legs' -- First Blood for the 'Black Legs.' " being a cartoonish illustration showing African-Americans playing baseball.
A wealth of other, unrelated prints as can be seen in our web listing 174264.
Complete in 16 pages, the front (unrelated) page is loose at the spine, but otherwise in very nice condition.
