I think you are right Dan. According to this, the company started in 1896, began selling baseball equipment in 1913, and in 1915 changed name of the company to "Shakespeare Company".

Looks like they only sold baseball equipment for about 10 years. It's not 19th century, but it's a pretty rare ball.
