10/15/1859 Harpers Weekly centerfold, top half depicts a Cricket match between England Eleven and US Twenty Two. I gues we needed twice as many to compete with them. The bottom half depicts a baseball match at the Elysian Fields, Hoboken. This is the first depiction of baseball in the Harpers Weekly. Very nice shape, fold vertically and horizontally due to size, basically two pages.
