Base ball goods, boxing gloves, striking bags and foot balls.
A trade catalogue of sporting goods issued in 1892 by the A.J. Reach Co. of Philadelphia, aimed at buyers of baseball equipment and related gear. The pictures are black-and-white wood engravings of baseball gloves seen from the palm side, with close-up detail of the webbing and laced edges, plus a plain back view bearing a trade mark. A designer could draw on their crisp hatching and stitched-edge outlines for vintage sports logos or period product labels.
