Base Ball origins
 
Posted By: <b>ramram&nbsp; </b><p>Came across a curious piece recently on ebay that I had not seen before. I'm pretty well versed in the true origins of the game as well as some early references but I thought this interesting. Hopefully you can make out the text as well as the image.<BR><BR><img src="http://home.kc.rr.com/ramram/SportsPastimesEngland-5.jpg">
