189376702New York: Charles H. Nicoll 1893. First Edition. This early football program is notable for featuring William H. Lewis 1868-1949 the first African American to earn First Team All-America honors who is seen here at the center of the Harvard team portrait. After graduating from Amherst and enrolling at Harvard Law School he played two seasons for the Crimson helping the team compile a 22-2 record. In November 1893 Harvard team captain Bertram G. Waters was unable to play in the last game of the season due to an injury. The game was Lewis' last college football game and the team voted him as the acting captain for the game making him Harvard's first African American team captain.<br /> <br /> Following law school Lewis was hired as a football coach at Harvard where he served from 1895 to 1906. It was during this time he proposed the "neutral zone" rule that is still used today to lessen the brutality of the game at the line of scrimmage before the snap. He also wrote one of the first books on the game A Primer of College Football 1896 before entering into politics. Elected to the Massachusetts legislature in 1901 he was named assistant U.S. attorney general for Boston in 1903. In October 1910 William Howard Taft appointed Lewis as a U.S. Assistant Attorney General sparking a national debate of the President's so-called "Black Cabinet". Later he led a successful private practice in Boston and emerged as a leading civil rights leader and speaker. Lewis was posthumously honored with induction into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.<br /> <br /> One of the only two losses in Lewis' Harvard career was the November 25 1893 game against Yale at Hampden Park in Springfield Massachusetts. For the first time Harvard wore leather uniforms rather than the expected canvas vest and canvas or moleskin pants. The Eli learned of the change about an hour before kickoff and countered by covering their uniforms with rosin which proved successful as Yale triumphed 6-0 on the strength of a Frank Butterworth touchdown in this era touchdowns were worth four points successful kicks after goal were worth two.<br /> <br /> A striking production die cut in the shape of a football. Oblong oval octavo 7 1/4" x 10 3/4": 76 pp. with photographic illustrations and numerous advertisements. The original cloth-covered boards feature decorative blind stamping and a stitched leather binding emulating the construction of a football. Period pencil signature to the title page with a few neat pencil notations to the blue Yale Score Card leaf. Some mild wear along the extremities with a bit of light discoloration to the rear panel; otherwise very good. Charles H. Nicoll unknown

RARE FIRST EDITION OF PIETRO BINI'S ANTHOLOGY ON FLORENTINE FOOTBALL a forerunner to the modern games of soccer rugby and American football. THIS IS ONE OF THE EARLIEST TREATISES ON THAT PREDECESSOR TO OUR MODERN GAMES.<br> In the game of calcio two teams each consisting usually of 27 men are engaged on an enclosed ground of 172 x 82 braccie fiorentine just little smaller than a modern football field. The action consists of carrying and kicking a pumped ball of medium size with fists and feet hence the name calcio in order to make it pass beyond the terminal barriers of the adversaries' half. One such successful action is called caccia. The team making the most caccie is the winner. Games typically last one hour and are played 'for honour's sake'.<br> The wonderfully detailed description of the game is largely by Giovanni de' Bardi and though it was first published anonymously nearly a century earlier the text included here is greatly expanded and illustrated. It fully explains the rules and manners of the game and describes a number of games that had recently been played in and near Florence. The double-page plate depicts a match in the Piazza Santa Croce is very impressive and provides us with a lasting 17th century "instant replay" of the event.
