Default Chadwick's 1868 "Game of Base Ball" book
Posted By: HalleyGator

I recently purchased 2 separate original editions of this book ... and have been told that only 12 or so original editions still exist.

I am trying to verify this fact (and maybe buy another orignal edition if someone has one for sale) so please chime in if you know of someone who owns a first edition of this book (regardless of whether they would sell it or not) so that I can get a count. THANKS!!

SO FAR ... I know that:

I have 2 first editions ... the Baseball HOF has 2 first editions ... and the NYPL has 1 first edition.

Anyone know of any others residing out there in private collections?
