19th Century Real or Fantasy Memorabilia
If money and availability weren't an issue, what piece(s) of 19th century memorabilia would you desire most. Personally I would love to own the full game used uniform of Tip O'Neill from his days with the St. Louis Browns(or New York Gothams).
Would love to hear other members' grand desires of items from the early days of Base Ball! |
The Excelsiors lemonpeel presentation baseball encased in glass I believe from about 1860. Sold at auction in the late 1990s I believe. Can see how the ball actually looked then without oxidation and dirt. Believe it was white. My understanding is that it was presented to teams attending the rules conference and just one survives.

I guess I would take a bat used in that game at Hoboken. Actually, I would just like to go back in time and take a good look at the pile of bats lying around over by either foul line, then go party with the teams after the game.
