Lot #1955 1912 Major League Baseball Game

Housed in its original wooden box, this 1912 Major League Baseball board game offers a remarkable glimpse into the growing influence of America's national pastime during the Deadball Era. Produced at a time when baseball legends such as Walter Johnson, Ty Cobb, and Christy Mathewson captivated fans across the country, the game brought the excitement of Major League competition from the ballpark into the home. The wooden box presentation elevates the piece beyond a traditional board game, providing both visual appeal and period authenticity. Early baseball games of this vintage were often heavily played, making examples that retain their original packaging especially desirable to collectors of sports memorabilia, antique games, and Americana. The offered lot has most if not all of the game pieces, playing cards and instructions. The game board is bright and clean, it displays really well. The wood game box has typical general wear and is not bad at all. A hefty piece, this checks in at 19x13x3.
