Welcome Bruce and good to see you here.

Not 19th century as I noted (and thanks to Jason19th), but a Ward to welcome you

Default thank you and answer to chadwick correction
Thank you all for the welcomes and the pm. I love the Ward, max and it is technically 19th century, at least to me. Since no one refered to or commented on the chadwick error reference, i will give the answer in case anyone was curious. In the diagram on pg 47 of Chadwick's 1868 Game of Baseball book, 1st and 3rd bases are reversed. this is clearly a typo based upon point of reference, but was not caught,(until chadwick corrected errors, possibly for another printing which never occurred) and i think it is especially interesting in light of the date and importance of the book.

Bruce

The Ward edition was 1901 with a new chapter (which I'll get copied for you)

For true 19th century titles, you might be able to pick up an 1860s title if there are any still left from this ad:

"Base Ball as viewed by A. Muffer"

Either a funny coincidence, or an even funnier title.

I just checked the image in my reprint edition, and the shortstop is also on the wrong side of the infield. Never saw this before.
