Description



Given the paucity of 19th-century and early-20th-century baseball guides in any condition—let alone well-preserved examples—we were blown away by the sight of Ben Cavallo's collection of rare Beadle's Dime, De Witt's, Wright & Ditson and Bull Durham guides. This pair of De Witt's includes the U.S. Centennial year of 1876 (FR w/period pencil notations and separated back cover) and 1877 (FR w/period pencil notations and a missing back cover).
