I'm looking to confirm the existence (or not) of certain early baseball dust jackets, both fiction and non-fiction.

Here's a list of titles I haven't seen in 18 years of baseball book collecting, either in auction or catalogue listings, as well as searching for ads in proquest and other magazine holdings.

Mathewson, Pitching in the Pinch, Putnam 1912 (later edition Putnam dj has been seen, Robert Edwards offered Putnam 1st with Grosset reprint dust jacket I believe)
Mathewson, Won in the Ninth
Chance, The Bride and the Pennant
Anson, A Ball Player's Career
Ellard, Base Ball in Cincinatti
Spalding, America's National Game
Spink, The National Game
Braathen, Ty Cobb Idol of the Baseball Fandom
Richter, Richter's History and Records of Base Ball
Roff, Base Ball and Base Ball Players
Thouey, Boston Base Ball Club 1871-1897

Thanks,

Max
