declining years card thread... show a card

[tedzan]

This scorecard is circa 1870's (or 1880's).
I'm not sure, but anyhow, it's neat....scoring boxes are printed on reverse.
I thought it was appropo for this really interesting thread.






Can any one here please provide an accurate date of this scorecard ?

Ted- we don't know the exact date, but it is likely late 1880's. You don't find color ones like that in the 70's.

Either 1875 or 1876. Entombed in a paperweight.

I don't know the year....
but when I posted this a while back / someone pointed out the diamond shaped home plate, I believe putting it in the 1800s....

1874 or 1875 Boston Red Stockings and an, as yet, unidentified team. Originates from Deacon White.
