Oct. 13, 1883 New York Clipper with Philadelphia Athletics Players on the Cover.
Lot 40. Oct. 13, 1883 New York Clipper with Philadelphia Athletics Players on the Cover. Text below the Clipper logo reads, “The Oldest American Sporting and Theatrical Journal.” The front cover features members of “The Athletic Club Winners of the American (Association) Championship.” Pictured individually in ovals, they wear formal clothing. A brief biography of the team and each player is found on the inside pages. Among others, Harry Stovey is pictured. The issue shows some slight chipping and staining. Someone has written “1883” at the top of the front cover. There also are some “x” marks in blue on some of the internal pages. The publication is complete, and it has the potential to be a superior display piece.
Winning Bid $185.
