187096977New York: Harper's Weekly 1870. 1870. Good. - An original 6-1/2 inch high by 20-1/4 inch wide wood engraving portraying the historic baseball game in which the Brooklyn Atlantics finally broke the Cincinnati Red Stocking's more than 80 game winning streak. The engraving drawn by C.S. Reinhart depicts a runner on first as the pitcher winds up to throw. An umpire attired in a top hat looms behind the catcher as players watch from the bench in the foreground. Brooklyn's skyline is seen behind the crowd in the background. The image is engraved on newsprint along the top of the double-page centerfold sheet pages 424 & 425 of Harper's Weekly above a 6-1/2 inch high by 20-1/4 inch wide wood engraving of a horse race titled "Jerome Park - The Race for the Hunter's Plate. - Sketched by Stanley Fox". Both images are engraved on a 16-1/2 inch high by 23 inch wide sheet with text printed on the verso. Folded twice with a few tiny holes along the vertical center fold.

Good. <p>Cincinnati's Red Stockings had held the all-time best perfect season record through 1869 winning all of their 67 games that year. Their record remained undefeated through the first part of the 1870 season until the memorable game against Brooklyn's Atlantic team on June 14 1870 at the Capitoline Grounds in Brooklyn. Though Atlantic had already lost a game to the Red Stockings they defeated Exford to regain the pennant in 1869 claiming the championship under the rules at the time which more closely resembled those of boxing. An estimated crowd of 15000 witnessed Atlantic's 8-7 victory over the Red Stockings in eleven innings. New York: Harper's Weekly, 1870. unknown
