Default "New Marlboro Match Base Ball Game" Rules & Diagram

Posted By: Shawn

I picked this up recently and think its quite remarkable! I wanted to get every ones opinion on what game you think it is? Another item came with this diagram that I think gives the answer, but I wanted to get an unbiased opinion before I post scans of it. The water mark on the top left corner states "Congress E. Smith".















1. Has anyone ever seen this type of setup?















2. Any value with this diagram (please keep in mind I will post scans of another item that goes with this that really is the "icing on the cake")















3. Any historical importance to this?















4. Recognize any of the names?















5. Are early diagrams of this nature common?(I am having trouble finding one)















Thanks in advance!
