Default 1889 International Association Detroit Ticket Book

1889 Detroit Wolverine Ticket Book (Champions of the International Association)


Obtained this book a couple months ago. One ticket in book and showing one of five loose tickets. I know of at least one more loose ticket (all belonging to this book).

The book was issued to Mr. Howard and is signed by both President Mills and Manager/Secretary Leadley. It is a nice companion piece to several Robert Leadley letters I obtained from Rhys Yeakley dating to this time (the letters chronical an attempt to gain the services of Bob Allen to play for Detroit).

On a side note, the tickets are much smaller than what was issued to the National League Detroit team the year prior.
