Default Chadwick's 1868 "Game of Base Ball" book

Posted By: Harry

I love vintage baseball books, but I have never owned that one.

Looking through my auction catalogs and notes from the last several years, I came across six copies alone. I believe that they are all different. Those, along with the five that you noted and the one that Jay has makes 12 right there.

I am sure that there are several more in private sports collections and others in the hands of book collectors and who know about other libraries or museums.

I would guess that there are minimally 25+ in existence.
