Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>I picked these three up at an antique show today. They cost me a pretty penny, but they were in full pages and in pretty amazing condition for their age. The "Presentation of a Champion Bat" is from July 24, 1869. The bat has H. Wright's name reflected on the top.<br /><br />The Providence Baseball Club image is from September 30, 1882. It features Manager Harry Wright, George Wright, Charles Radbourn, J. M. Ward and others. <br /><br />The Metropolitan Base-Ball Nine is from August 5, 1882. I don't recognize any of the names.<br /><br />Any body have any idea how much these are worth? Thanks!<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1121557154.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1121557137.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1121557110.JPG">

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>The prices are all over the place, and they are probably undervalued anyway. A single sale price quote doesn't mean much.<br /><br />(Below is a detail of a 1874 Philadelphia A's team woodcut showing a baby faced 21 year old Cap Anson. Below that is the complete print)<br /><br /><img src="http://www.cycleback.com/1800s/Image374.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://www.cycleback.com/harpers_files/h703.jpg">
