The term Woodcut refers to a woodcut print, and/or the process used to create the image that is then printed in books, magazines, etc. It is typically how they created the type of Red Stockings team image you mentioned getting in the 1869 Harper's Weekly you got. By the way, what is the date of the Harper's Weekly edition you got? The one I have, and the image in the /earlier link I posted, are from the same 7/3/1869 Harper's Weekly edition.

Thx for the info… always find so many knowledgeable collectors here who are willing to share their knowledge.
Yes, looks like we now have same Harpers edition (is it considered a magazine or a newspaper?)
Once I receive it, now I need to think about how to display it - suggestions welcomed!)
