View Full Version : Ironsides 1884 Scorecard info?
I am trying to help a friend out on getting a value and any other info on this scorecard. Here is a note I got with the scans (I do believe at least one of the players, McTamany, might have made it further in his career):
"What I have found so far is that the team played in the Eastern League for the 1884 season only. I did find some references to it as follows:

Would this be the 1884 Lancaster Ironsides? Full team roster (including all players listed on the scorecard) can be found at the Baseball Reference link you listed.

Yes it is. I told him my guess would be a $100-$250 value but I am not a scorecard guy, per se'.

Leon- is that half a scorecard, or a full one with two teams? If a full one, $150-250 sounds about right; if it's a half more like $50-75.

I agree Barry. I didn't even think about it not having the other part to it. I don't know. The owner just sent me those two scans. Thanks for the feedback ....

I think that it is interesting that even as far back as 1884 the pitcher batted last.
