1908 lithograph titled 'Three Men on Base' by Edward Penfield. This image originally was in the Colliers Weekly from April 26, 1902. Six years later it was made available by Colliers although I don't know the exact purpose. In 1911, it would also serve as the cover for the Book of Baseball.

The second item is a Daily Graphic woodcut from 1873 showing a very young Cap Anson. I believe this is the earliest woodcut of Anson but could be wrong.
