1876 Boston vs NY May 6th
 

Two years from now will see the 150th anniversary of The National leauge. it was not smooth sailing the first decade. A number of teams came and went and those that had some stability did well. This program is from the first week of First Year of the NL. Each of the 8 teams played 70 Games. The next Two years saw the Leauge shrink to 6 teams and 60 Games 1879 things started looking up 84 games and back up to 8 teams. Collecting 1870's scorecards is a long slow process. But each new program is packed with history and I am grateful they still exist.

So....Happy to add this scorecard to my collection.

I wasn’t able to leg out the Merkle Uzit and really got surprised by the Carolina Brights McGinnity, but was able to check off the Uzit for the HOF backs line with Jennings One Hand!
So much cool stuff in the non-cards lots. I really tried for the Walsh Leather, but had to pool all the cash and focus on the goal.

Good stuff you all!!!! !!!!
