Sports in the good old days are the theme of this royalty-free archive of over 460 superbly detailed line illustrations featuring players of every kind of sport, suited up and ready for action. Most of the men and women depicted are modeling Victorian and early-20th-century sporting outfits and uniforms, but if their garb seems quaint, their sports are very familiar -- baseball, football, handball, bowling, tennis, golf, horseback riding, polo, archery, shooting, hunting, skating, skiing, sledding, fishing, swimming, boating, bicycling, boxing, fencing, billiards, and even rugby, lacrosse, cricket, croquet, and bocce. Selected from rare authentic sources, the illustrations in this book have been carefully chosen for quality and usefulness.
