I recently picked up this envelope which was promoting Palmer's 1889 book Athletic Sports in England, America and Australia.

When I thought about posting it, I realized we haven't had too many threads with baseball envelopes and stationery. If others have some examples, I'd love to see them

Here are a few with an emphasis on baseball card distributors. Some are quite ornate and nice looking...

Harwood had the first baseball factory of any real size, and also bought the patent on the modern baseball. This letterhead is 1860's.
