I guess this should count in the pre-Civil War category, an 1859 Unions of Morrisiana v. Excelsiors trophy ball. For those unfamiliar with the Unions, they played in what later became The Bronx, about a mile from the current Yankee Stadium.

Nice ball, Jay, and nice presentation with the box and flag motiff.
Here is one that I don't know if I've ever shown. It is an 1864 trophy ball commemorating the first Silver Ball Championship in Boston. The Tri-Mountains defeated the Osceolas from Maine 53-18. I've included a page from an article written in 1905 that shows the ball in the lower right. Last edited by GaryPassamonte; 06-26-2017 at 12:00 PM.

Great trophy ball. Hope it didn't come from Nash...
 I don't think these are pre-1870 but are early and neat looking..... Quote:
