1869 National Chronicle-woodcut interest

[bgar3]

I recently picked up a June 5, 1869 issue of the National Chronicle, primarily because it contains the first national notice of the Cincinnati Red Stockings, complete with scouting report. This predates the Harper’s issue by a month is meant to coincide with their arrival in the northeast. It was the official publication of the National Association, and is full of baseball content, including articles, box scores, ads and news. Among the notices were 2 I thought would interest woodcut collectors. One about Jim Creighton, the other a supplement of all the portraits issued.. if anyone has anything they want me to look for in the issue, let me know. I have attached a few representative photos.
