Hi Bruce- many years ago I purchased an 1867 Haney's Guide, also published by Peck & Snyder, that had affixed to its inside cover a large advertising poster, in full color, picturing sporting goods equipment that P & S had for sale. It is quite possible that the number of belts, caps, jerseys, and other assorted paraphernalia numbered around 75. It's only a guess, but that may solve the mysterey of the color illustrations.
