Unbound. Printed broadside. Measuring 12½" x 15". Printed in a variety of display type sizes on off-white newsprint paper stock. Ink correction of the time of the game pushing it to 9:00 A.M. from 8:30 A.M., slight toning but stable and otherwise near fine. Interestingly, the Concord B.B.C. seemed to indicate that they had a little bit of a chip on their collective shoulders: "Base Ball not being 'Officially' considered an Athletic Sport, is not announced by the 'Executive Committee' on the 'Offical' Programme." An early baseball broadside.
