Elysian Fields
1865 Currier & Ives lithograph of Elysian Fields where the first organized game of Baseball was played on June 19, 1846 in this ballpark in Hoboken, NJ.
This 90-year old copy of the original Currier & Ives Litho was replicated by the Sidney Z. Lucas Gallery in NYC (circa 1930). It's nearly impossible to find original 1865 copies of this Currier & Ives print. This picture (23" x 15" cardboard) is the decorative centerpiece in my office, surrounded by my various uncut sheets of BB and FB cards (1927 to 1961).  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- v---- Henry Chadwick (Baseball Journalist)  TED Z T206 Reference .
