Steve, both Fan Craze sets are from 1906, despite the slab. But here is a 1904 Stenzel Pin of the popular Mike Donlin

The Standard Catalog has no entries for 1897, which is where we've halted.

In 1896 the Catalog shows Mayo N301s.

In 1895 there are Mayo N300s, Newsboy Cabinets, and Police Gazzette Supplements.

For 1890 I have the 4 page supplement that was in Harper's Weekly, if we can get that far along.

1897 Nebraska Indians

I'm not sure whether the Keeler and Clarke Alpha Engraving cards have ever been located but here is how they would appear. Keeler top row far left. W. J. Clarke bottom row second from the right.

Have we given up on this?

Looking for 1892

I've not given up... just waiting. I'll post for 1890 unless someone else has an 1890 item they want to show... This was interesting. Once we get to the 1860s we should do it again, with items from series posted here disqualified.

According to Terry Knouse, from whom I purchased this cabinet, this dates to 1890.

I don't have anything from 1892, but here's 1891...

Well we missed 1892 back there...

1889

This was the 2nd time Harpers Weekly had a baseball image on its cover.

Here's the November 9, 1889 first page, showing William Ewing, Captain of the New York Base-Ball Club. 9 1/2" x 12"...

http://www.net54baseball.com/picture...&pictureid=224

Of course, 1887 is an easy one.........

I really wish I had something from 1892, but here's 1886...

Edited again to add a scorecard with 23 year old Connie Mack catching.

1885

Harpers Weekly. The Chicago Base-Ball Club, October 17, 1885. 5 1/2" x 9 1/2", includes Anson, Kelly, Clarkson, Williamson, and Billy Sunday.

http://www.net54baseball.com/picture...&pictureid=225

1885, the sequel...

Actually, due to it's August 22 date, I suppose it's the prequel.

1884 going once, going twice...

I can't touch 1884... I've dug through a box of stuff and can help with 1882 and 1869. After that I'm done.

1884 anyone?

Here we go with 1884...

The caption reads, "Base-Ball on Skates, Washington Park, Brooklyn"

1884 lawson game
 

Wow Leon, those are cool.

From Harpers Weekly 1883 :

May 12 - The New BB Grounds at Chicago

October 13 - BB Champions of 1883 / Boston BBC

1882

Harper's Weekly.


Some old guys that played in some windy city on a lake in Illinois somewhere.

http://www.net54baseball.com/picture...&pictureid=227


Williamson, Kelly, Filet, Goldsmith
Quest, Barnes, Anson, Dalrymple, Gore
Nicol, Corcoran

Piano Legs Gore looks pretty dapper there, with his white tie, and all.
Cap Anson is dashing in those stripes.

These guys won the National Leage in 1882, this was in the October 14th, 1882 issue of Harper's Weekly.

May 14, 1882 - The Princeton College Baseball Nine

My next entry won't be until 1878...

I've got another box I've yet to dig through, but I'm doubtful that I can do anything here until the Cincinnati Redlegs of 1869. This thread has reached 3000 views, is that enough 'hits' for a Thread Hall of Fame?

Help, guys. Where's the 'vintage' OLD stuff???

July 27, 1878
Baseball at Blackville - 1st blood for Black Legs

1878 Huntley & Palmers
 

Hope you don't mind if we double up on 1878.

http://i285.photobucket.com/albums/l...leyPalmers.jpg

Nice, Craig. I'd not seen one of those before.

Fantastic Craig. Those are new to me, too. They're beautiful.

I think at this point, multiple posts are appreciated, especially when they're non-Harper's issues.

I'm getting on a plane pretty soon. I'll post 1874 when I land, unless somebody has 1877-76-75 ready to go.

19th Century Scorecard
 

This scorecard is circa 1870's (or 1880's).
I'm not sure, but anyhow, it's neat....scoring boxes are printed on reverse.
I thought it was appropo for this really interesting thread.


<img src="http://i529.photobucket.com/albums/dd339/tz1234zaz/1880Scorecard.jpg" alt="[linked image]">



Can any one here please provide an accurate date of this scorecard ?


TED Z

Ted- we don't know the exact date, but it is likely late 1880's. You don't find color ones like that in the 70's.

I'm waiting for 1867. so I can serve up a Muffin

Either 1875 or 1876. Entombed in a paperweight.

http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s...g?t=1241937954

I don't know the year....
but when I posted this a while back / someone pointed out the diamond shaped home plate, I believe putting it in the 1800s....
