One of only three we have ever seen in the past 40+ years, this album was Influenced by the Allen & Ginter type card books. There are 30 pages included, with the capacity to hold CDV's and cabinet cards. Most importantly, the pages are blessed with magnificent, full-color sports illustrations to enhance each photograph. Can you imagine how amazing this would look with baseball ad sports photography filling it? Sports shown include: baseball, cricket, tennis, fishing, horse racing, sporting, rugby and more. There is even a music box inside and under glass, which is still functional, and there are 12 color lithographed plates. Overall EX quality with some minor tears.
