1868 Ticket

My Understanding was that Harry Wright and his traveling Cincinnati Red legs played the Baltimore Enterprise ball club. So an early ticket from a team with a place in baseball and specifically Baltimore baseball history.

Well I have always admired the 1894 Baltimore pin. Since you posted it in a post where it is slightly (24 years) off topic. I am feeling a bit of Baltimore pride coming from you . Did you grow up there or just a fan? I saw there was a book written on Baseball in Baltimore before 1894. I hope to get a copy and read it soon. Great pin.

Enterprises
 
Jonathan, the 1868 Red Stockings played the Enterprises team on September 25, winning 24 to 3, with Harry Wright.
The famous 1869 team did not play the Enterprises, but did play two Teams from Baltimore, the Pastimes and the Marylands, beating both 30 to 8.
Glad you could connect the Enterprises item to the Baltimore team.
Nice.

Don't know if I posted this here but this is my invitation to the Una Base Ball Club's Calico Party on February 6, 1868. Unfortunately I missed the carriage and could not attend:
