Exactly 130 years have passed since the "Father of American Football" published his treatise on the sport. Its elegant cover graphics feature a patriotic football seal and gilt lettering. The spine is tight without splits. A past owner's name and address are written on the first flyleaf in old-time handwriting. The covers are VG overall with a few whitish marks. And there's a pressed clover on pages 94-95—that's gotta be good luck!
