Thanks, Graig. Obtained it from Pat Nester about a year ago.

In 1884, Washington ...
fielded teams in 2 of the 3 major leagues, the American Assn. and the Union Assn. As the summer progressed, the AA team did much worse than the UA team and lost much of its fan support. The AA team's manager was fired after the August 1st home game against the NY Metropolitans (with HOFer Tim Keefe). Following a 6 - 5 loss to the NYMs on August 2nd, the Wash. AA team was disbanded (their final record for 1884 being 12 wins and 51 losses). Below are (1) a scored score card for the final 8/2/1884 game (Keefe played center field), upon which the fan wrote in the margin "Washington Club disbanded after this game," and (2) A Wash. AA 1884 schedule upon which presumably the same fan wrote "disbanded this date" right next to the August 2nd date. Sorry my pics don't do these pieces justice - I don't have a scanner and I am lousy with a camera!

Great program there Jay. Here's an unopened piece of Adam's Pepsin Gum that I found in my great grandmother's belongings.
