With only moderate wear along the spine and minor chipping on the front right bottom corner cover, this 1890 Spalding Official Baseball Guide is in excellent form. The brilliant olive-green hue of the front and back covers is kept in remarkable condition. This guide is littered with tons of baseball facts and knowledge, including the precise dimensions of the playing field to an all-encompassing rulebook that addresses every aspect of the game. In addition, it provides a full examination of the previous league season, complete with particulars on batting averages, winners, and top pitchers.
Any collector's set would benefit greatly from the addition of this guide.
