1929 EARLY AMERICAN BASEBALL ENGRAVING
Pencil signed by R. Varin and based on Currier and Ives lithograph (The American National Game of Baseball). 150 copies were made

I lived in Hoboken for 5 years, and our building was built on the land where the very first recorded "Base Ball" game took place...on the water, overlooking the city.

Very cool - thanks for sharing! Is it well known around that area of the significance of the spot? Is there any monument or anything pointing out the first recorded baseball game being played there?

Good old Wiki - see photo of the monument along with location in the entry.

Yes, thanks to the other Michael for the Wiki link!

That monument is placed near a major intersection in Hoboken, and each corner has a large stone "base" in the sidewalk. It's pretty cool.

Side note- the monument is not on the exact spot of the first game...that's about 1000 feet closer to the waterfront (right under Maxwell Place), where I used to live.

Just picked this up today. Don’t know much about it but the back says it was taken in 1943.
