Where can I find…
 
…the National League baseball rules in place during the 1908 season?

I’m trying to figure out something related to a particular game. Access to a digital copy of the 1908 rulebook would be extremely helpful.

Thanks, in advance, for any assistance you can give. I appreciate it.

This 1908 Spalding Official Guide should have what you need.

I appreciate the link; however, it led me to a different guide. The linked publication was:

Official guide of the National association of professional base ball leagues for 1901-1904

I'm looking for the rules in place for 1908. Shall I presume A.G. Spalding published a guide for '08 as well?

Oops. Here is the 1908 one. https://archive.org/details/spalding...e/286/mode/1up

Excellent. The “Crazy ‘08” book has recaptured my attention. This will help tremendously as I attempt to take a deeper dive into that spectacular season.

Thank you.

Eric,

Great book! I usually pass on the books I read to others, but there are a few keepers. This is one of them. Good luck with your research!
