A number of years ago, Lew Lipset ran an auction lot for a scrapbook of NY Clipper baseball woodcuts. If memory serves me correctly, there were maybe 50 or so individual baseball subjects, including numerous HOF’ers. This was the nicest assembly of woodcuts I have ever seen all together. If you do some online research, you might be able to find the old listing, I was fortunate enough to see it in person and was the underbidder but never got to own it.
The Leslie’s Illustrated examples are also very nice and quite scarce. There was also a St. Louis publisher that did several, mostly ball players from the local team, Comiskey, etc.
