George
2 woodcut's of Chicago 1885. What a Contrast How they are portrayed, Police Gazette Monarch's of the field and the Harper's Same team but just a bunch of regular guys sprawled out on the ground. The image vs the reality.. J |

George- as you probably know, that woodcut from the Spirit of the Times is the first baseball one ever to appear in an American newspaper. As such, it is very significant. Nice one!

Thanks Barry! Yes, there are previous baseball woodcuts but not in a newspaper format...at least to my knowledge.
