Default Currier & Ives prints

Posted By: jamie

I just picked up a couple of Currier & Ives prints depicting the famous Elysian fields match at Hoboken and an interesting one depicting Lincoln as a ball player in a satirical cartoon. I was able to find a copy of it online:



My question is how do I determine the age of these prints? They look to be cut from a book- each has a "Plate #" at the bottom of the page but there's no other information on them.

I bought them to frame but would love to know a little more about them.
